    idr: make idr_layer larger · 050a6b47

    With recent preloading changes, idr no longer keeps full layer cache per
    each idr instance (used to be ~6.5k per idr on 64bit) and the previous
    patch removed restriction on the bitmap size.  Both now allow us to have
    larger layers.
    
    Increase IDR_BITS to 8 regardless of BITS_PER_LONG.  Each layer is
    slightly larger than 2k on 64bit and 1k on 32bit and carries 256 entries.
    The size isn't too large, especially compared to what we used to waste on
    per-idr caches, and 256 entries should be able to serve most use cases
    with single layer.  The max tree depth is 4 which is much better than the
    previous 6 on 64bit and 7 on 32bit.
