We're already pretty deep and have allocated quite a few resources, we 
we'd need to unwind (see error path below when the attach fails).

However, we cannot clear the thread TIDR register, so we need to be 
careful that a user process cannot exhaust our limited pool of TIDs by 
calling the attach ioctl with bogus arguments. Which should be easy to 
do: attach the max number of contexts, and keep calling attach!
So we're going to need to figure out something to prevent that (define a 
max allocation per context? with a value of 1 for now?)

Should probably be unsigned.
