char: misc: Increase the maximum number of dynamic misc devices to 1048448

Browse source 
On AmpereOne, 128 dynamic misc devices is not enough for the per-cpu
coresight_tmc devices.  Switch the dynamic minors allocator to an ida and
add logic to allocate in the ranges [0..127] and [256..1048575], leaving
[128..255] for static misc devices.  Dynamic allocations start from 127
growing downwards and then increasing from 256, so device numbering for the
first 128 devices remain the same as before.
