I've not seen the first version of this anywhere in my inbox, not sure
where that got lost.

Anyway, this seems like a false positive - I'm assuming this was caught
with KCSAN. The commit message really should mention that.

fill_object_idr creates the idr, which yes is only access later on under
the idr_mutex. But here it's not yet visible to any other thread, and
hence lockless access is safe and correct.

No idea what the KCSAN complains about safe access like this best practice
is.
