Ok, I think I see your point. Likely whenever we do a xa_for_each over
&guc->context_lookup we should just grab its lock as if it is in the
xarray we have reference to object looked up. Also everytime we use
xa_for_each on &guc->context_lookup it is a corner case we it is ok to
block anyone else from using this (e.g. during a reset, checking
debugfs, etc...). Does that sound correct?
