Subject: [PATCH 0/2] ipc/util.c: Cleanup and improve sysvipc_find_ipc(), V2

Update of the sysvipc_find_ipc() changes:

patch 01:
Unmodified patch from Rafael Aquini, already in mmotm.
https://www.ozlabs.org/~akpm/mmotm/broken-out/ipc-replace-costly-bailout-check-in-sysvipc_find_ipc.patch

patch 02:
Performance improvement and further cleanup.

Especially, patch 02 tries to make sysvipc_find_ipc() more readable.

E.g.: There was a "+1" at the end of the function.
My first idea: "+1", as in "move to next".
No, the "+1" was "convert from index to pos".

@Andrew: Patch 01 is already in mmotm. Could you add
patch 02 to your tree and forward it as needed?

Thanks,
Manfred

sysvipc_find_ipc() can be simplified further:

- It uses a for() loop to locate the next entry in the idr.
This can be replaced with idr_get_next().

- It receives two parameters (pos - which is actually
and idr index and not a position, and new_pos, which
is really a position).
One parameter is sufficient.

Other than the typo, the patch looks good to me.
