As we never submit anything except driver initialization commands
for that context, what would cause this context to become corrupted?

Please consider:

 }

To achieve the same effect and as a bonus, get the
same default context (with workarounds) as we
did in driver init.

I also think that we should zero the global
default context in here to gain similarity wrt
module init.
