We can forgo an evict-everything here as the shrinker operation itself
will unbind any vma as required. If we explicitly idle the GPU through a
switch to the default context, we not only create a request in an
illegal context (e.g. whilst shrinking during execbuf with a request
already allocated), but switching to the default context will not free
up the memory backing the active contexts - unless in the unlikely
situation that context had already been closed (and just kept arrive by
being the current context). The saving is near zero and the danger real.
