This is less verbose.

Note that the upper limit of ida_simple_get() is exclusive, but the one of
ida_alloc_range() is inclusive. Sothis change allows one more device.

MINORMASK is ((1U << MINORBITS) - 1), so allowing MINORMASK as a maximum value
makes sense. It is also consistent with other "ida_.*MINORMASK" and
"ida_*MINOR()" usages.
