Michael,
This is a small patch for the write logging issue with async queue.
I have made a __vhost_get_vq_desc() func which may compute the log
info with any valid buffer index. The __vhost_get_vq_desc() is
coming from the code in vq_get_vq_desc().
And I use it to recompute the log info when logging is enabled.

Thanks
Xiaohui
