I would use just highway=residential for cases like this.

It is not a grade-separated junction, I see no slip roads or ramps.
Though wiki has "_link tags should be used for physical channelization
of turning traffic lanes at traffic signal junctions and in roundabout
designs that physically separate a specific turn from the main
roundabout." that seems to fit. What more there is
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Highway_link#Simple_at-grade_intersections

But in that case I would consider it reason to change wiki rather than
start using residential_link, service_link, cycleway_link etc.
