Yes, things are wrong here.. It should hold xa_lock to protect entry
until the kref is obtained and this must use kref_get_unless_zero() as
the kref could be 0 while still in the xarray.

This is better to use __xa_erase and hold the xa_lock outside the loop

No, absolutely not. xarray must hold its internal lock when
required. The external lock is only about protecting the contents

I'm not sure why this needs to hold this mutex, the spinlock looks OK.

while(true) not do/while is the usual convention
