misc: misc_minor_alloc to use ida for all dynamic/misc dynamic minors
misc_minor_alloc was allocating id using ida for minor only in case of MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR but misc_minor_free was always freeing ids using ida_free causing a mismatch and following warn: > > WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 159 at lib/idr.c:525 ida_free+0x3e0/0x41f > > ida_free called for id=127 which is not allocated. > > <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< ... > > [<60941eb4>] ida_free+0x3e0/0x41f > > [<605ac993>] misc_minor_free+0x3e/0xbc > > [<605acb82>] misc_deregister+0x171/0x1b3 misc_minor_alloc is changed to allocate id from ida for all minors falling in the range of dynamic/ misc dynamic minors Fixes: ab760791c0cf ("char: misc: Increase the maximum number of dynamic misc devices to 1048448") Signed-off-by: Vimal Agrawal <vimal.agrawal@sophos.com> Reviewed-by: Dirk VanDerMerwe <dirk.vandermerwe@sophos.com> Cc: stable@vger.kernel.org Link: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241021133812.23703-1-vimal.agrawal@sophos.com Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@linuxfoundation.org>
