We're currently creating chips at module init time only so using a
static index for dummy devices is fine. We want to support dynamically
created chips however so we need to switch to dynamic device IDs.
It misses ida_destroy().
No, we always call ida_free() for separate IDs when removing devices
and we remove all devices at module exit so no need to call
ida_destroy().
Perhaps couple of words about this in the commit message?
But ida_destroy() and ida_free() are already well documented. It's
clear that we remove all devices at exit and that every device removes
its ID, there's really no point in mentioning it again.
