This does not seem accurate considering the __check_limbo() call that
is called for a single domain.

The vision for this is not clear to me. When I read that context needs to be allocated
I expect it to return a pointer to some new context, not an int. What would the
"context" consist of?

Could this description be expanded to indicate what this context is used for?
