Subject: [PATCH v2 03/15] auxdisplay: linedisp: Use unique number for id

The absence of decrementation of linedisp_id is incorrect in two ways,
i.e. it may cause:
- an ID exhaustion
- (and if the above is addressed) a duplicate id number may be allocated
  next time a device is added

Replace above mentioned approach by using IDA framework.
