I have the device nodes (tun[0-3]) in /dev. On a 4.3-STABLE (from sometime this summer) loading if_tun.ko succeeds, the tun0 shows up, but unloading the module causes an immediate kernel panic. I didn't check if the tun0 works, though. On a 4.4 (cvsupped two days ago) loading the if_tun module succeeds (at least doesn't report any errors), but no tun interfaces appear, and again, unloading results in an immediate panic. I'm sorry that I don't have any more specific information, but I didn't want to completely trash my / filesystems (I don't have softupdates there) by repeating this experiment. However, if really needed, I can collect some information from the 4.4 box (as it isn't fully set up yet).
