Subject: [PATCH 52/62] ipc: Remove call to idr_preload

From: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox@...rosoft.com>

The ipc code follows a different pattern to most IDR preload users;
the lock that it is holding is embedded in the object, not protecting
the IDR (the IDR is protected by an rwsem).  Instead of dropping the
lock, allocating memory and retrying, we reserve a slot in the tree
before grabbing the lock, then merely replace the NULL entry with the
initialised object.
