When the channel register code was changed to allow hotplug operations,
dynamic indexing wasn't taken into account. When channels are randomly
plugged and unplugged out of order, the serial indexing breaks. Convert
channel indexing to using IDA tracking in order to allow dynamic
assignment. The previous code does not cause any regression bug for
existing channel allocation besides idxd driver since the hotplug usage
case is only used by idxd at this point.
With this change, the chan->idr_ref is also not needed any longer. We can
have a device with no channels registered due to hot plug. The channel
device release code no longer should attempt to free the dma device id on
the last channel release.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
