__xa_cmpxchg() is called with rcu_read_lock(), and it will allocate
memory if necessary.
Fix the problem by moving rcu_read_lock() after __xa_cmpxchg(), meanwhile,
it still should be held before xa_unlock(), prevent returned page to be
freed by concurrent discard.

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 reStructuredText 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.
