Assert struct mutex for now? Without it userspace can still see not
fully initialized ctx. It is kind of two arguments but good for
documentation nevertheless I think.

The goal is that we need to fix that now. And we can't hold struct_mutex
across the extensions, as we want to wrap ctx_setparam which expects to
be able to take struct_mutex. So it has to be registered outside of
struct_mutex in this or the next path.

Waitasec... It is the very next patch that drops the struct_mutex. (I
was thinking it was removed in this patch.)

So in the next patch you update the assert to ctx_idr_lock. Too evil? :))

Tvrtko
