I don't understand how that's a reply to my comment.
By far the most likely explanation for this passage is the Quirrel is describing the ritual to summon a dementor, and Harry rediscovers the counterspell. So the hinted-at event has already happened.
That wouldn't be a hinted-at event, since that passage occurs way after the Patronus chapters. It would be... aftershadowing?
At first I wrote "foreshadowing," but I was too lazy to look up the order in which things happened, so I substituted what I thought was a word safely agnostic to timing.
My comment was a reply to the comment above yours, sorry.
