Hmmm... weird, can't see where the difference in behavior would come
from.  The only material difference would be if id < 0 && id != -1 in
i2c_add_numbered_adapter(), which now would trigger WARN_ON_ONCE()
inside idr_alloc() instead of silently returning -EINVAL.

Can you please elaborate the failure?  I can't see how the idr
conversion would lead to spinlock bad magic error.  Does reverting
this patch make the problem go away?

Thanks.
