ida_simple_get() and ida_simple_remove() are deprecated. Use ida_alloc()

I have alredy sent out patch for this....


Hi,

I was not aware of it...

Do you plan to send patches for all ida_xxx() changes that are needed all over the kernel or is it only limited to 'drivers/block/null_blk/main.c'?

(read: should I spend time on it, or is the phasing out of this deprecated API is already on the todo list of someone)
