Can you elaborate a bit more here on the conditions in which we hit this 
issue?
After a GT reset the GuC state is cleared so we need to re-enable 
everything no matter what the old enable status was, so I don't think we 
can hit the described error there, unless your aim is to keep the 
context blocked across the reset (in which case the commit message needs 
rewording). On the registration side, if a context is not registered, it 
will be enabled on the submission that is causing the registration, so 
again we should be covered.
