This patch fixes a couple of issues that can happen as a result of steal_context() dropping the context_lock when all possible PIDs are ineligible for stealing (hopefully an extremely hard to hit occurence). This case exposes the possibility of a stale context_mm[] entry to be seen since destroy_context() doesn't clear it and the free map isn't re-tested. It also means steal_context() will not notice a context freed while the lock was help, thus possibly trying to steal a context when a free one was available. This fixes it by always returning to the caller from steal_context when it dropped the lock with a return value that causes the caller to re-samble the number of free contexts, along with properly clearing the context_mm[] array for destroyed contexts.
