This turns out to be because the radix tree\nof the IDR contains only internal radix-tree nodes and it is this that\ncauses idr_is_empty to return false. The internal nodes are cleaned by\nidr_destroy.\n\nUse idr_for_each to check that the IDR is empty instead of\nidr_is_empty to avoid the problem."
