[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 1/6] gallium: clarify the constraints on sampler_view_destroy

"The GL state tracker, which is the only one that runs into the
multi-context subtleties (due to share groups), already guarantees that
sampler views are destroyed before their context of creation is destroyed."

How does the GL state tracker guarantee this?  Does this guarantee also
apply to pipe_surfaces?  Context: ChromiumOS previously ran into an issue
where sampler_views and pipe_surfaces outlived the context that created
them [1], and we have technical debt [2][3][4] emanating from this.  It
would be great to remove this, if things have changed in the Gallium code.
