XArray provides it's own internal lock which protects the internal array
when entries are being simultaneously added and removed. However there
is still a race between retrieving the pointer from the XArray and
incrementing the reference count.
To avoid this race simply hold the internal XArray lock when
incrementing the reference count, this ensures there cannot be a racing
call to xa_erase().

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.
