The lock protecting the data structure does not need to be an rwlock. The only read access to the lock is in an error path, and if that's limiting your scalability, you have bigger performance problems. Eliminate mlx5_mkey_table in favour of using the xarray directly. reg_mr_callback must use GFP_ATOMIC for allocating XArray nodes as it may be called in interrupt context. This also fixes a minor bug where SRCU locking was being used on the radix tree read side, when RCU was needed too.

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 Restructured Text 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.
