ida_alloc_range is the perfect fit for this use case.  Eliminates
a custom spinlock, a call to ida_pre_get and a local check for the
allocated ID exceeding a maximum.

This hunk should be okay because the mmu_context_lock does not protect
the extended_id array, right Aneesh?

Yes. This is called at process exit, so we should not find parallel
calls. On the allocation side, we are protected by mmap_sem. We do
allocate extended_id when doing mmap.
