Adding dri-devel, I think a pile of those are in drm.

Just quick context on why we do this: We need to marshal/demarshal
NULL in a ton of our ioctls, mapping that to 0 is natural.
And yes I very much like this, and totally fine with trading an
idr_init_base when we can nuke the explicit index ranges at every
alloc side instead. So if you give me an idr_alloc function that
doesn't take a range as icing, that would be great.
