Nothing, but IMO it’s a bad idea. 1. customers who build a compute workload on top of fargate have no future, newer hardware probably won’t ever support it. 2. It’s already ancient hardware from 3 years ago. 3. AWS now has to take responsibility for building an AMI with the latest driver, because the driver must always be newer than whatever toolkit is used inside the container. 4. AWS needs to monitor those instances and write wrappers for things like dgcm.
