This patch disables the default qdisc by explicitly setting the
IFF_NO_QUEUE private flag so that now the tun xmit path do not
require any lock by default.

The default qdisc was first removed as a side effect of commit
f84bb1eac027 ("net: fix IFF_NO_QUEUE for drivers using alloc_netdev")
and recently restored with commit 016adb7260f4 ("tuntap: restore default qdisc")
