Just one quibble,

The idr upper bound is INT_MAX [inclusive].

But given that it will return NULL anyway, do you really want to
short-circuit the erroneous lookup, and just leave it to the idr to
validate it itself?

So... How efficient is the cyclic idr for a long running system that has
accumulated several hundred thousand stale magics?

Maybe an igt to create a couple of billion shortlived clients (with
overlapping lifetimes) and check the behaviour?
