tap: fix the crash
Crash will happen when someone will try to setup a tap interface in host namespace without providing the host side of tap interface custom name. This patch fixes the problem by using the default name in this case. Change-Id: Ic1eaea5abd01bc6c766d0e0fcacae29ab7a7ec45 Signed-off-by: Mohsin Kazmi <sykazmi@cisco.com>
