The return inside the loop makes us free only a single layer.

Avoid a possible kmem_cache_create() failure by creating idr_layer_cache
unconditionary at boot time rather than creating it on-demand when idr_init()
is called the first time.

This change also enables us to eliminate the check every time idr_init() is
called.

Slab constructors currently have a flags parameter that is never used.  And
the order of the arguments is opposite to other slab functions.  The object
pointer is placed before the kmem_cache pointer.

Convert

        ctor(void *object, struct kmem_cache *s, unsigned long flags)

to

        ctor(struct kmem_cache *s, void *object)

throughout the kernel

Slab destructors were no longer supported after Christoph's
c59def9f222d44bb7e2f0a559f2906191a0862d7 change. They've been
BUGs for both slab and slub, and slob never supported them
either.

This rips out support for the dtor pointer from kmem_cache_create()
completely and fixes up every single callsite in the kernel (there were
about 224, not including the slab allocator definitions themselves,
or the documentation references).

Remove all ids from the given idr tree.  idr_destroy() only frees up
unused, cached idp_layers, but this function will remove all id mappings
and leave all idp_layers unused.

A typical clean-up sequence for objects stored in an idr tree, will use
idr_for_each() to free all objects, if necessay, then idr_remove_all() to
remove all ids, and idr_destroy() to free up the cached idr_layers.

<content type='text'>
This patch adds an iterator function for the idr data structure.  Compared
to just iterating through the idr with an integer and idr_find, this
iterator is (almost, but not quite) linear in the number of elements, as
opposed to the number of integers in the range covered by the idr.  This
makes a difference for sparse idrs, but more importantly, it's a nicer way
to iterate through the elements.

The drm subsystem is moving to idr for tracking contexts and drawables, and
with this change, we can use the idr exclusively for tracking these
resources.

Implement idr based id allocator.  ida is used the same way idr is
used but lacks id -&gt; ptr translation and thus consumes much less
memory.  struct ida_bitmap is attached as leaf nodes to idr tree which
is managed by the idr code.  Each ida_bitmap is 128bytes long and
contains slightly less than a thousand slots.

ida is more aggressive with releasing extra resources acquired using
ida_pre_get().  After every successful id allocation, ida frees one
reserved idr_layer if possible.  Reserved ida_bitmap is not freed
automatically but only one ida_bitmap is reserved and it's almost
always used right away.  Under most circumstances, ida won't hold on
to memory for too long which isn't actively used.

Separate out idr_mark_full() from sub_alloc() and make marking the
allocated slot full the responsibility of idr_get_new_above_int().

Allocation part of idr_get_new_above_int() is renamed to
idr_get_empty_slot().  New idr_get_new_above_int() allocates a slot
using the function, install the user pointer and marks it full using
idr_mark_full().

This change doesn't introduce any behavior change.  This will be
used by ida.
