                  How this working for you ^ ?

I don't see too much harm in just initializing the idr regardless to
keep the close path simpler. Then stick a WARN in context_idr_cleanup if
it actually does anything, fake_context_idr_cleanup();

I have some recollection of hitting a really tricky thing while
developing PPGTT where the order of the unref in the above sequence
really mattered. Looking again though, I don't see anything familiar
- but my suggestion would put me completely at ease.

In either case:
