the basic problem is that exposing multiple jpeg encoders would require
userspace to do the scheduling. Which is bad.
I.e. all userspace programms would need to know the existence of
all jpeg encoders and then somehow negotiate how to use all of them
most efficiently.

Think multiple different programs that would need to negotiate to
spread across all of them in the best way.

Doing this in the kernel, we just expose one encoder (and queue) all
programs would just pile onto that one encoder and the kernel then
would be on the hook to do the scheduling - which the kernel can do
better (with relevant code implemented)
