It was a UAF bug that was reported to us

https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=1401594 (but I
guess security bugs are not going to be visible)

To be clear, it is probably best to move it even if the current placement cannot cause any problems, I am just double-checking if you had any concrete observations here while mulling over easier stable backports if we would omit it.

This was actually the originally reported issue, the
finalize_create_context_locked() part was something I found when the
original report prompted me to audit gem_context_register() call
paths.
