  Log:
  Add the tap driver.
  
  The tap driver is used to present a virtual Ethernet interface to the
  system. Packets presented by the network stack to the interface are
  made available to a character device in /dev. With tap and the bridge
  code, you can make remote bridge configurations where both sides of
  the bridge are separated by userland daemons.
  
  This driver also has a special naming hack to allow it to serve a similar
  purpose to the vmware port.
