Hi,
I am adding my review although this patch has already been acked.
Please find some comments inline. Otherwise it looks OK.

Regards,

It seems there is no usage for rx->type in TAP code. Therefore - can you please remove rx->type assignment?

1. It seem you are using 'tap_type' as a global static variable to pass a value to eth_dev_tap_create().
Can you please pass this value by adding a parameter to eth_dev_tap_create() call and remove the global static variable?
2. You are using tap_type with values 0 and 1 which are converted to enums ETH_TUNTAP_TYPE_TUN and ETH_TUNTAP_TYPE_TAP respectively. Can you please always just use the enums (avoiding the conversion)?

In seems there is no usage for 'type' field from rx_queue struct in the code. If so - can you please remove it?

Please use spaces (like all other fields in this struct) instead of tabs, so all fields look aligned.

Same comment here about replacing tabs with spaces
