Using device_context_mapped() wouldn't simplify the code since it
would just tell me that at the time of check there was a context.
I would still need to lock, get the context, check if the context
is valid, do the work, and unlock.

Modifying device_context_mapped() to return the context isn't
going to work either because it may go away in the meantime since
I wouldn't hold the lock.
