#1240018 — [PATCHv2 0/1] Update SCSI hosts to use idr for host number mgmt

This patch updates the SCSI hosts module to use the idr
index-management routines to manage its host_no index instead
of using an ATOMIC integer. This means that host numbers
can now be reclaimed and re-used.

It also updates the hosts module to use the idr routine idr_find()
to lookup hosts based on the host number, hopefully speeding
up said lookup.

After noticing that my idr calling sequences where very close
to those in other modules, I considered creating some idr helper
functions (and using them), but because idr usage almost always
requires the caller to manage their own locks, I gave up on
this approach (as suggested by Tejon -- thank you).

#1240020 — [PATCHv2 1/1] SCSI: update hosts module to use idr index management

Update the SCSI hosts module to use idr to manage
its host_no index instead of an ATOMIC integer. This
also allows using idr_find() to look up the SCSI
host structure given the host number.

This means that the SCSI host number will now
be reclaimable.

How does this actually grab a reference to the host?

I'll wait to see what you produce, but I don't think, using a separate
idr array, you can close the race window between lookup and get.  One of
the nice things about using the cdev iterator is that the get is part of
the lookup process.

Hmm. Should be possible if you free up the IDR in scsi_remove_host(), 
just after setting the state to SHOST_DEL.

Then all lookups fail between _del and _release which is different
behaviour from current.  In theory that's a very short window because we
should have removed all the devices synchronously in _del, so I don't
think there's any adverse consequences but it's something that would
need investigating.

To be honest, with the host number patch, I'm starting to come to the
conclusion that if it isn't broken, don't fix it because of the risks.
What are we trying to fix, anyway?  The host number wrapping at 32 bits?

Good catch -- I should have noticed that.

I will resubmit the patch.
