Ok, as you say intel_lrc needs to iterate over all rings to look at the
default context in context_free. Feels odd, and breaks the onion of
context_init / context_fini. The pecularity is in lrc and I would push
the oddness back there.

That engine->default_context is pinned and mapped is only because of the
HWS and for no other reason does it exist (seqno writes are to address
not relative the per-context HWS index). You could simply allocate a
page for each engine and use that as the global HWS irrespective of
contexts.
