xa_init_flags() takes XArray flags (XA_FLAGS_*), not gfp flags, even
though the parameter is typed gfp_t. Passing GFP_ATOMIC leaves both
lock-type bits clear, so xa_lock_type() resolves to XA_LOCK_NORMAL for
qp_tbl and cq_tbl.

Both tables are used with the IRQ-safe accessors: xa_store_irq() with
GFP_KERNEL from process context, and xa_lock_irqsave() from the event
queue path. When a store needs to grow the tree, __xas_nomem() drops
the lock using the recorded lock type before allocating:

	if (gfpflags_allow_blocking(gfp)) {
		xas_unlock_type(xas, lock_type);
		xas->xa_alloc = kmem_cache_alloc_lru(...);
		xas_lock_type(xas, lock_type);
	}

With XA_LOCK_NORMAL that is a plain spin_unlock(), so the sleeping
GFP_KERNEL allocation runs with interrupts still disabled by
xa_store_irq(), and lockdep annotates the lock with the wrong class.

GFP_ATOMIC also happens to set __GFP_HIGH (0x20), which collides with
XA_FLAGS_ACCOUNT (32U) and silently enables memcg accounting of the
XArray nodes.

Use XA_FLAGS_LOCK_IRQ so the lock type matches how the tables are
actually accessed.
