Well, I got your point finally. From commit 76b4e5299565 ('XArray: Permit
storing 2-byte-aligned pointers'), xa_is_node() will not be *ACURATE*. Those
2-byte align pointers will be treated as node too.

Well, I found another thing, but not sure whether you have fixed this or not.

If applying following change

@@ -1461,6 +1461,11 @@ static void check_align_1(struct xarray *xa, char *name)
                                        GFP_KERNEL) != 0);
                XA_BUG_ON(xa, id != i);
        }
+       XA_STATE_ORDER(xas, xa, 0, 0);
+       entry = xas_find_conflict(&xas);
        xa_for_each(xa, index, entry)
                XA_BUG_ON(xa, xa_is_err(entry));
        xa_destroy(xa);

We trigger an error message. The reason is the same. And we can fix this with
the same approach in xas_find_conflict().

If you think this is the proper way, I would add a patch for this.
