tap: crash in multi-thread environment
In tap tx routine, virtio_interface_tx_inline, there used to be an
interface spinlock to ensure packets are processed in an orderly fashion
clib_spinlock_lock_if_init (&vif->lockp);
When virtio code was introduced in 19.04, that line is changed to
clib_spinlock_lock_if_init (&vring->lockp);
to accommodate multi-queues.
Unfortunately, althrough the spinlock exists in the vring, it was never
initialized for tap, only for virtio. As a result, many nasty things can
happen when running tap interface in multi-thread environment. Crash is
inevitable.
The fix is to initialize vring->lockp for tap and remove vif->lockp as it
is not used anymore.
