New Revision: 326694
URL: https://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/326694

Log:
  MFC r326362:
  Disallow TUN and TAP character device IOCTLs to modify the network device
  type to any value. This can cause page faults and panics due to accessing
  uninitialized fields in the "struct ifnet" which are specific to the network
  device type.
