[PATCH v2] misc: misc_minor_alloc to use ida for all dynamic/misc dynamic minors

From: Vimal Agrawal
Date: Tue Oct 15 2024 - 03:02:49 EST


misc_minor_alloc was allocating id using ida for minor only in case of
MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR but misc_minor_free was always freeing ids
using ida_free causing a mismatch and following warn:
> > WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 159 at lib/idr.c:525 ida_free+0x3e0/0x41f
> > ida_free called for id=127 which is not allocated.
> > <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
...
> > [<60941eb4>] ida_free+0x3e0/0x41f
> > [<605ac993>] misc_minor_free+0x3e/0xbc
> > [<605acb82>] misc_deregister+0x171/0x1b3

misc_minor_alloc is changed to allocate id from ida for all minors
falling in the range of dynamic/ misc dynamic minors

Fixes: 0ad35fed618c ("char: misc: Increase the maximum number of dynamic misc devices to 1048448")
