idr_alloc() is called with GFP_KERNEL inside idr_lock(), which holds a
spinlock. GFP_KERNEL allows the allocator to sleep, triggering a
sleeping-while-atomic bug.
Fix by using idr_preload(GFP_KERNEL) before taking the lock to
pre-allocate memory in a sleepable context, then idr_alloc() with
GFP_NOWAIT inside the spinlock-protected section.

/dev/mshv to VMMs")
