The following patch simplifies the *BSD tap/tun code and makes use of numbered
tap/tun interfaces on all *BSD OS's. NetBSD has a patch in their pkgsrc tree
to make use of this feature and DragonFly also supports this as well.

Signed-off-by: Brad Smith <address@hidden>

I confirmed that the NetBSD tun driver does use /dev/tap%d by default.
There are not other CONFIG_BSD=y targets listed in ./configure besides
FreeBSD/kFreeBSD, OpenBSD, and Darwin.  Therefore this patch is safe.

Thanks, applied to my net-next tree:
https://github.com/stefanha/qemu/commits/net-next

And when will this be merged to master?
