[PATCH 2/2] KHO: init new_physxa->phys_bits to fix lockdep

Lockdep shows the following warning:

INFO: trying to register non-static key.
The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe
you didn't initialize this object before use?
turning off the locking correctness validator.

[<ffffffff813ebb7f>] __kho_finalize+0xcf/0x400
[<ffffffff813ebef4>] kho_finalize+0x34/0x70

This is becase xa has its own lock, that is not initialized in
xa_load_or_alloc.

Modifiy __kho_preserve_order(), to properly call
xa_init(&new_physxa->phys_bits);
