[PATCH 68/77] inotify: convert to idr_alloc()

From: Tejun Heo
Date: Wed Feb 06 2013 - 14:55:20 EST


Convert to the much saner new idr interface.

Note that the adhoc cyclic id allocation is buggy. If wraparound
happens, the previous code with idr_get_new_above() may segfault and
the converted code will trigger WARN and return -EINVAL. Even if it's
fixed to wrap to zero, the code will be prone to unnecessary -ENOSPC
failures after the first wraparound. We probably need to implement
proper cyclic support in idr.

Only compile tested.
