[PATCH net-next v2 1/1] driver: tun: Use new macro SOCK_IOC_TYPE instead of literal number 0x89

From: <hidden>
Date: 2016-10-27 01:06:37

From: Gao Feng <redacted>

The current codes use _IOC_TYPE(cmd) == 0x89 to check if the cmd is one
socket ioctl command like SIOCGIFHWADDR. But the literal number 0x89 may
confuse readers. So create one macro SOCK_IOC_TYPE to enhance the readability.

 v2: Rename the macro SOCK_IOC_MAGIC to SOCK_IOC_TYPE
 v1: Initial version
