Allocate agent IDs from a global IDR instead of an atomic variable. This eliminates the possibility of reusing an ID which is already in use after 4 billion registrations. We limit the assigned ID to be less than 2^24 as the mlx4 driver uses the most significant byte of the agent ID to store the slave number. Users unlucky enough to see a collision between agent numbers and slave numbers see messages like: mlx4_ib: egress mad has non-null tid msb:1 class:4 slave:0 and the MAD layer stops working. We look up the agent under protection of the RCU lock, which means we have to free the agent using kfree_rcu, and only increment the reference counter if it is not 0.
