If you need to change the pointer associated with an ID, you can call
-:c:func:`idr_replace`. One common reason to do this is to reserve an

ID by passing a ``NULL`` pointer to the allocation function; initialise the
object with the reserved ID and finally insert the initialised object
into the IDR.
Some users need to allocate IDs larger than ``INT_MAX``. So far all of
these users have been content with a ``UINT_MAX`` limit, and they use
-:c:func:`idr_alloc_u32`. If you need IDs that will not fit in a u32,

we will work with you to address your needs.
If you need to allocate IDs sequentially, you can use

with larger IDs, so using this function comes at a slight cost.
To perform an action on all pointers used by the IDR, you can

Jon, I'm comfortable with you merging this through the docs tree.
Looks like we also need:
