Subject: [PATCH v8 4/5] ipc: Conserve sequence numbers in extended IPCMNI mode
The mixing in of a sequence number into the IPC IDs is probably to
avoid ID reuse in userspace as much as possible. With extended IPCMNI
mode, the number of usable sequence numbers is greatly reduced leading
to higher chance of ID reuse.
To address this issue, we need to conserve the sequence number space
as much as possible. Right now, the sequence number is incremented
for every new ID created. In reality, we only need to increment the
sequence number when one or more IDs have been removed previously to
make sure that those IDs will not be reused when a new one is built.
This is being done in the extended IPCMNI mode,
