Running the Cyberpunk 2077 benchmark we can observe that the lookup helper is relatively hot, but the 97% of the calls are for a single object. (~3% for two points, and never more than three points. While a more trivial workload like vkmark under Plasma is even more skewed to single point lookups.)
Therefore lets add a fast path to bypass the kmalloc_array/kfree and use a pre-allocated stack array for those cases.
