    ipc: convert to idr_alloc() · 54924ea3

    Convert to the much saner new idr interface.
    
    The new interface doesn't directly translate to the way idr_pre_get()
    was used around ipc_addid() as preloading disables preemption.  From
    my cursory reading, it seems like we should be able to do all
    allocation from ipc_addid(), so I moved it there.  Can you please
    check whether this would be okay?  If this is wrong and ipc_addid()
    should be allowed to be called from non-sleepable context, I'd suggest
    allocating id itself in the outer functions and later install the
    pointer using idr_replace().
