XArray: Regularise xa_reserve

The xa_reserve() function was a little unusual in that it attempted to
be callable for all kinds of locking scenarios.  Make it look like the
other APIs with __xa_reserve, xa_reserve_bh and xa_reserve_irq variants.

Sometimes you need to ensure that a subsequent call to :c:func:`xa_store`
will not need to allocate memory. The :c:func:`xa_reserve` function
will store a reserved entry at the indicated index. Users of the normal
API will see this entry as containing ``NULL``. If you do not need to
use the reserved entry, you can call :c:func:`xa_release` to remove the
unused entry. If another user has stored to the entry in the meantime,
:c:func:`xa_release` will do nothing; if instead you want the entry to
become ``NULL``, you should use :c:func:`xa_erase`.
Finally, you can remove all entries from an XArray by calling
:c:func:`xa_destroy`. If the XArray entries are pointers, you may wish
to free the entries first. You can do this by iterating over all present
