Correct.

It was originally moved to meet a dependency due to it being defined statically.

This was simply some "while I'm here" refactoring as the commit originally
included a change here. The main point of this change was to replace the
mutex_unlock() with put_context(), which is a wrapper around the unlocking
of the context's mutex.

Thanks for reviewing.
