In case the driver gets unbound while a device is open, kernel panic may be forced if a list of allocated context IDs is not empty.
When a device is open, the list may happen to be not empty because a context ID, once allocated by a context ID allocator to a context assosiated with that open file descriptor, is released as late as on device close.
On the other hand, there is a need to release all allocated context IDs and destroy the context ID allocator on driver unbind, even if a device is open, in order to free memory resources consumed and prevent from memory leaks. The purpose of the forced kernel panic was to protect the context ID allocator from being silently destroyed if not all allocated IDs had been released.
Before forcing the kernel panic on non-empty list of allocated context IDs, do that unlikely on non-empty list of contexts that should be freed by preceding drain of work queue (there must be another bug if that list happens to be not empty). If empty, we may assume that remaining contexts are idle (not pinned) and their IDs can be safely released.
Once done, release context IDs of each of those remaining contexts unless it happens a context is unlikely pinned. Force kernel panic in that case, there must be still another bug in the driver code.
Now the kernel panic protecting the allocator should not pop up as the list it checks should be empty. If it unlikely happens to be not empty, there must be still another bug.
