We don't need the loop anymore, so it should look like

  static int worker_pool_assign_id(struct worker_pool *pool)
  {
	  int ret;

	  lockdep_assert_held(&wq_mutex);

	  ret = idr_alloc(&worker_pool_idr, pool, 0, 0, GFP_KERNEL);
	  if (ret >= 0) {
		  pool->id = ret;
		  return 0;
	  }
	  return ret;
  }

Anyways, I pulled master into wq/for-next and resolved it there, so it
shouldn't cause you any more trouble.

Thanks!
