eccb852f1fe6bede630e2e4f1a121a81e34354ab is the first bad commit

vhost: batching fetches

With this patch applied, new and old code perform identically.

Lots of extra optimizations are now possible, e.g.
we can fetch multiple heads with copy_from/to_user now.
We can get rid of maintaining the log array. Etc etc.
