Nice shot.
When piso@ and I spoke about this I was suggested, if empirically we
see a possible form of parallelism not happening too seldomly for the
handlers, to use group of handlers which can run concurrently and to
give a kthread for any group.
The "split & group" operation might be done by the driver developer
and I don't really know if it is worth it.
