There is no nead.

I just reread through how next_id is implementated in ipc/util.c and I
had been reading it wrong.  There is no need to change the sysctl.

What criu needs is an interface that specifies the next_id to allocate
both the high and the low bits and that is what this the sysctl
provides.

The implemenation could use a little cleanup so it is easier to
understand something like this perhaps:
