spinlock is OK, _irq is only needed if the code needs to mask IRQs
because there is a user of the same lock in an IRQ context, see the
documentation.

Then why look it up in an xarray at all? If you already have the
pointer to get a refcount then pass the refcounted pointer in and get
rid of the sketchy xarray lookup.
I'm skeptical of this explanation
