It would be nice if it was possible to use/test software ISP without specific
patches to the array.  Do I get it right that the idea is to enable softisp for
certain devices where it can be used & there is no better pipeline handler to
use?  And there could be a runtime option for devices where it can be used &
there is a better pipeline handler to use?  Not a blocker but it should be
clarified in the commit message.
