I afraid there is a mess-up!

There are few things:

-- the iHd driver(which is usually come up with media-sdk) is something we
never tested with gstreamer-vaapi. But I did some testing few years ago, but
the driver was doing things in non-conventional way. Eventually I made
gstreamer-vaapi work with this driver with at least half a dozen of hacks in
gstremaer-vaapi to fool the driver.

-- Our main target is the open source driver and opensource version of libva:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/vaapi/libva/
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/vaapi/intel-driver/
According to my perspective, It is difficult for you to get support for other
drivers in the opensource community. And these other drivers are not well
tested with gstreamer-vaapi too. 

-- AFAIK, all distributions (ubuntu/fedora etc) are shipping the opensource
driver: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/vaapi/releases/libva-intel-driver/

-- I have no guarantee for non-intel graphics cards + gstreamer-vaapi use case
:)
