I think it is just missing

      drbd: convert to idr_alloc()
  
          Convert to the much saner new idr interface.

I'll post an updated 10/18 right away.

This RfC batch was produced from a tree
based more-or-less on your for-3.9-drivers, I think.

We will rebase to your for-3.10/drivers shortly,
and then also post an additional batch of general fixes.
