This series tries to access virtqueue metadata through kernel virtual

Test shows about 24% improvement on TX PPS. TCP_STREAM doesn't see
obvious improvement.
How is this going to work for CPUs with virtually tagged caches?
Anything different that you worry? I can have a test but do you know any
archs that use virtual tag cache?
Thanks
