Convert greybus/uart.c from IDR to XArray. The abstract data type XArray is more memory-efficient, parallelisable, and cache friendly. It takes advantage of RCU to perform lookups without locking. Furthermore, IDR is deprecated because XArray has a better (cleaner and more consistent) API.
I haven't verified the use of the new API (yet) but I have a few comments on your patch, below.

I'm not sure I'm right about this... But the actual change you're making has nothing to do with what the Intel test robot reported. I personally find the "Reported-by" here a little misleading, but maybe the "Link" line that gets added will provide explanation.
Anyway, unless someone else contradicts/corrects me, I'd rather not have the "Reported-by" here (despite wanting to provide much credit to lkp@intel.com...).
You are correct, "Reported-by:" does not make sense here.
