So where is the speedup coming from? I'd guess the ring is
hot in cache, it's faster to access it in one go, then
pass many packets to net stack. Is that right?
Another possibility is better code cache locality.
So how about this patchset is refactored:
1. use existing APIs just first get packets then
transmit them all then use them all
2. add new APIs and move the loop into vhost core
for more speedups
