Reorder controller initialisation so that in the unlikely event that id allocation fails, we don't end up releasing id 0 in the destructor. Signed-off-by: Johan Hovold <johan@xxxxxxxxxx> --- This is hardly an issue for the current implementation, but if further error paths or added, or simply if the code is reused elsewhere, it could become a problem. Let's fix it up, but no need to backport to stable.
