Currently the requirement is that on systems with multiple DSP domains,
each is exposed as a separate /dev/accel/accelN node, the library must
query the domain name to select the correct DSP to offload to and use
other dependencies like shell etc.

I'll remove this from here and bring it later if we extend this ioctl to
support other options.>
