I honestly cannot figure out now what I thought the problem is. Perhaps 
I confused it with intel_context_pin.

There is so much churn in intel_context.c, both recent and in this 
series, that I struggle to keep with it...

...so this is also okay. Perhaps add an assert that pin count is above 
zero as well.
