OK, thanks.  I have workqueue-convert-to-idr_alloc.patch queued for 3.9
so I moved it ahead of linux-next.patch and made a mess.

Tejun, can you please confirm that this is how worker_pool_assign_id()
should look in linux-next?


static int worker_pool_assign_id(struct worker_pool *pool)
{
	int ret;

	do {
		idr_preload(GFP_KERNEL);
		spin_lock_irq(&workqueue_lock);
		ret = idr_alloc(&worker_pool_idr, pool, 0, 0, GFP_NOWAIT);
		if (ret >= 0)
			pool->id = ret;
		spin_unlock_irq(&workqueue_lock);
	} while (ret == -EAGAIN);

	return ret < 0 ? ret : 0;
}
