When we do shadowing, workload's request might not be allocated yet,
so we still require shadow context's object. And when complete workload,
delay to zero workload's request pointer after used for update guest context.

Please allocate the context earlier then. The point is that until you
do, shadow_ctx->__engine[ring_id]->state is *undefined* and this code is
still illegal. :-p

The intent is that you start tracking the lifetime of the state you are
using because the assumptions made here will not hold for much longer.

Wrong tree used as teh baseline, could you resend? Or an alternative to
avoid dereferencing state outside of being pinned?

Sorry, applied against gvt dev tree which has unmerged ones against
dinq. Current code is to try to do possible shadowing earlier even not
requiring real request be allocated, need to relook for proper lifetime
to sort this out.

Chris, after double check, for shadowing we do assure to pin our
context earlier for target engine context, so shadow_ctx->__engine[ring_id]->state
is always valid. We just don't require the real request be generated earlier
during scan/shadow, so use pinned context state pointer directly. Will that be
a problem in future?

It's just a matter of how you get it. The only reason I was using the
request was that had an explicit pointer to the pinned context; it
looked easier to keep using that rather than add a separate context
member. If you would rather do that, do so -- please don't keep
tacitly using the gem_context to derive the intel_context without any
obvious sign of protection. (It's just that the link between gem_context
and intel_context is going to become more tenuous, so it is important we
make the ownership and lifecycle of intel_context more explicit.)
