Subject: [RFC 05/10] kernel/workqueue.c: replace id allocator ida with tida

The implementation of the id allocator ida causes about 14 KB of
unused memory to sit around in the embedded struct idr. Even if one
could get rid of that, ida would still use at least one idr_layer
worth 2 KB of memory as well as one idr_bitmap worth another 128
bytes, which is all a bit much if we only create, say, a few 100
workers.

Using the much simpler tida saves around 100 KB of memory.
