firewire: cdev: use an idr rather than a linked list for resources
The current code uses a linked list and a counter for storing resources and the corresponding handle numbers. By changing to an idr we can be safe from counter wrap-around giving two resources the same handle. Furthermore, the deallocation ioctls now check whether the resource to be freed is of the intended type. Signed-off-by: Jay Fenlason <fenlason@redhat.com> Some rework by Stefan R: - The idr API documentation says we get an ID within 0...0x7fffffff. Hence we can rest assured that idr handles fit into cdev handles. - Fix some races. Add a client->in_shutdown flag for this purpose. - Add allocation retry to add_client_resource(). - It is possible to use idr_for_each() in fw_device_op_release(). - Fix ioctl_send_response() regression. - Small style changes.
