SYNOPSIS
       int ida_simple_get(struct ida * ida, unsigned int start, unsigned int end,

ARGUMENTS
       ida
           the (initialized) ida.

       start
           the minimum id (inclusive, < 0x8000000)

       end
           the maximum id (exclusive, < 0x8000000 or 0)

       gfp_mask
           memory allocation flags

DESCRIPTION
       Allocates an id in the range start <= id < end, or returns -ENOSPC. On memory allocation
