XArrays are a better match than IDR for how AppArmor is mapping secids. Specifically AppArmor is trying to keep the allocation dense. XArrays also have the advantage of avoiding the complexity IDRs preallocation. In addition this avoids/fixes a lockdep issue raised in the LKML thread "Linux 5.18-rc4" where there is a report of an interaction between apparmor and IPC, this warning may have been spurious as the reported issue is in a per-cpu local lock taken by the IDR. With the one side in the IPC id allocation and the other in AppArmor's secid allocation.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
