tun: fix tun_chr_aio_write so that aio works
aio_write gets const struct iovec * but tun_chr_aio_write casts this to struct
iovec * and modifies the iovec. As a result, attempts to use io_submit
to send packets to a tun device fail with weird errors such as EINVAL.
Since tun is the only user of skb_copy_datagram_from_iovec, we can
fix this simply by changing the later so that it does not
touch the iovec passed to it.
