Subject: [PATCH v6 05/21] tap: Remove tap_receive()
The receive member of NetClientInfo is only for legacy clients and the
receive_iov member is always used when it is set.
Under normal circumstances we still need to maintain compatibility.
It seems that there is no need to remove the tap_receive here.
You just need to optimize the tap_receive to call the tap_receive_iov.
In the history, we can see a large number of devices still keep this interface,
For example, e1000_receive can directly call the e1000_receive_iov.
That sounds a good idea. I'll do so in the next version.
