hmm, it has two ref, one for _context_ and the other for *process* (or maybe mm for
your next version), right? For each bind it will take a ref of context as present
design. but why also process ref need be taken for each bind? I mean it seems does
not break _user can call bind for two devices in the same domain_.
And if you really want to take a ref of *process* for echo bind, you should put it when
unbind, right? I just not find where you put the ref of process when unbind. But just put
the process ref when free context.
Maybe I just miss something.
