Subject: [NET] TUN needs CRC32 after adding multicast filtering to it

Hi!

Just tried to compile 2.6.11-rc1, but it fails with unresolved symbols
"bitreverse" etc. Found out that TUN driver needs CRC32 which I haven't
compiled in.
Following patch fixes this. Please, consider applying.

Cheers,
Vita
