[RFC,v2,1/3] tun: correctly report an error in tun_flow_init()

On error, the error code from tun_flow_init() is lost inside
tun_set_iff(), this patch fixes this by assigning the tun_flow_init()
error code to the "err" variable which is returned by
the tun_flow_init() function on error.

Looks fine, we can separate this out of this series and replace the RFC with 
net-next to let David apply it soon.

Thank Paul.
