Hm right, looking around I think another relevant commit is

commit 322d884ba731e05ca79ae58e9dee1ef7dc4de504
Author: Matthew Wilcox <mawilcox at microsoft.com>

    idr: Delete idr_find_ext function
    
    Simply changing idr_remove's 'id' argument to 'unsigned long' works
    for all callers.

I don't remember any such checks for the kms or gem idr lookups, so still
no idea why Keith typed this. The warning is gone since 5+ years after all
(and drm lease isn't that old).
