So we get an anonymous gang here that's not associated with a spufs
directory.  I think I'd slightly prefer to move this up to the caller
instead of having it in alloc_spu_context as that would make the logic
clearer.  Also a little comment about these helper gangs would be
useful.

As Arnd said the check for the number of contexts is probably better
moved to a different patch.

But in general this is a nice generalization, we should probably move
put this in now already.
