Purely relying on access->ops being NULL feels a bit hacky to me..

Maybe setting acces->ictx = NULL; explicitly here would be a clear
demarcation between the new API for "internal" v/s the original one.
Else, I definitely believe we should have a comment mentioning that
access->ictx is NULL for internal.
