Contact: Maintainer of the driver you plan to convert
+idr_init_base()
+---------------
+
+DRM core&drivers uses a lot of idr (integer lookup directories) for mapping
+userspace IDs to internal objects, and in most places ID=0 means NULL and hence
+is never used. Switching to idr_init_base() for these would make the idr more
+efficient.
