Thanks, Benjamin is looking into that. For the mailing list here, here's some
prior art for a similar problem found by downstream RPi4 HEVC driver developer.
The general problem here is that we don't want to signal the request until the
decode have complete, yet we want to pick and run second (concurrent job) so
that parallel decoding is made possible. For RPi4 it is not multi-core, but the
decoding is split in 2 stages, and the decoder run both stages concurrently,
which basically means, we need to be able to run two jobs at the same time
whenever possible.

This introduce media_request_pin/unpin, but being able to pin a request and not
have it bound to any other object lifetime anymore seems a bit error prone in
comparison to the current restrictions. Comments welcome !
