If we always initialize kref for the context, even if we are using fake
contexts for hangstats when there is no hw support, we can forgo the
dance to dereference the ctx->obj and inspect whether we are permitted
to use kref inside i915_gem_context_reference() and _unreference().

My ulterior motive here is to improve the debugging of a use-after-free
of ctx->obj. This patch avoids the dereference here and instead forces
the assertion checks associated with kref.
