net: tap: NULL pointer derefence in dev_parse_header_protocol when skb->dev is null

Fixes a NULL pointer derefence bug triggered from tap driver.
When tap_get_user calls virtio_net_hdr_to_skb the skb->dev is null
(in tap.c skb->dev is set after the call to virtio_net_hdr_to_skb)
virtio_net_hdr_to_skb calls dev_parse_header_protocol which
needs skb->dev field to be valid.

The line that trigers the bug is in dev_parse_header_protocol
(dev is at offset 0x10 from skb and is stored in RAX register)
  if (!dev->header_ops || !dev->header_ops->parse_protocol)
  22e1:   mov    0x10(%rbx),%rax
  22e5:	  mov    0x230(%rax),%rax

Setting skb->dev before the call in tap.c fixes the issue.
