The rider is cornering at maximum available lateral acceleration so he is not able to countersteer to the "inside" in order to bring the bike to the vertical position. So he decides to push down to the road with his knee to bring the bike up, does that unload the tires by countering gravity and cause him to lose grip just as he would if he countersteered? Or wouldn't it be a problem since combined vectors of centrifugal force and gravitational force are in line with the motorcycle and pushing with your knee to the ground doesn't cause a problem?
