idr: fix unexpected ID-removal when idr_remove(unallocated_id)

If unallocated_id = (ANY * idr_max(idp->layers) + existing_id) is passed
to idr_remove().  The existing_id will be removed unexpectedly.

The following test shows this unexpected id-removal:

  static void test4(void)
  {
        int id;
        DEFINE_IDR(test_idr);

        printk(KERN_INFO "Start test4\n");
        id = idr_alloc(&test_idr, (void *)1, 42, 43, GFP_KERNEL);
        BUG_ON(id != 42);
        idr_remove(&test_idr, 42 + IDR_SIZE);
        TEST_BUG_ON(idr_find(&test_idr, 42) != (void *)1);
        idr_destroy(&test_idr);
        printk(KERN_INFO "End of test4\n");
  }

ida_remove() shares the similar problem.

It happens only when the caller tries to free an unallocated ID which is
the caller's fault.  It is not a bug.  But it is better to add the
proper check and complain rather than removing an existing_id silently.
