Usually user doesn't use different codecs at the same time. I don't think using
BSD1 only for MFX is better choice for VP8/H264/MPEG2 etc.

Currently i915 kernel can manage the loads between the engines. But i915
kernel doesn't know HCP/HuC commands must be ran from the 2nd ring unless UMD
driver can tell the kernel. which is why I915_EXEC_BSD_RING1 and
I915_EXEC_BSD_RING2 are added to the execution ioctl.
