[PATCH v2] block/rnbd: Remove a useless mutex

From: Christophe JAILLET
Date: Mon Feb 07 2022 - 15:48:42 EST


According to lib/idr.c,
The IDA handles its own locking. It is safe to call any of the IDA
functions without synchronisation in your code.

so the 'ida_lock' mutex can just be removed.
It is here only to protect some ida_simple_get()/ida_simple_remove() calls.

While at it, switch to ida_alloc_XXX()/ida_free() instead to
ida_simple_get()/ida_simple_remove().
The latter is deprecated and more verbose.
