Do we really need to retain the multi-gather support? The code-bloat
(both userspace and kernel driver) is very significant just for
preparing and patching of the multi-buffer cmdstreams.

If userspace runs out of a free space within the pushbuffer, then it
should simply reallocate a larger pushbuffer.

I'm suggesting that we should have a single gather per-job, any objections?
