This patch made some changes to the original xbitmap implementation from
the linux-dax tree:

- xb_set_bit: delete the new inserted radix_tree_node when failing to
  get the per cpu ida bitmap, this avoids the kind of memory leak of the
  unused radix tree node left in the tree.

- xb_preload: with the original implementation, the CPU that successfully
  do __radix_tree_preload() may get into sleep by kmalloc(), which has a
  risk of getting the caller of xb_preload() scheduled to another CPU
  after waken up, and the new CPU may not have radix_tree_node
  pre-allocated there, this will be a problem when inserting a node to
  the tree later. This patch moves __radix_tree_preload() after kmalloc()
  and returns a boolean to indicate the success or failure. Also, add the
  __must_check annotation to xb_preload for prudence purpose.
