It shouldn't be calling it. I had already spotted it with Johannes. If
something fails later on, we have already changed the changed the
context, but we shouldn't.

Beats me, I'm not very familiar with this part. :\

Okay, I think I was confused.

But I think I understand now, this is about the width of this vif, not
about the combination used by the chanctx. The chanctx updates its own
width according to the widths of all vifs assigned to it. I'll fix
this.
