You need to pin the context here, otherwise there is not guarrantee that
the lrc_reg_state exists, or map it directly.

You don't need to. The current context is the kernel context, it is
scratch and never used by userspace so no oa-reports.

This entire chunk can go and I don't need to critique
gen8_begin_ctx_mmio() -- it needs a bit of tlc.

This patch is not ready.
