In tcmu_blocks_release, lock_page() is called to prevent a race causing
possible data corruption. Since lock_page() might sleep, calling it
while holding XArray lock is a bug.

To fix the bug switch to XArray normal API by replacing the xas_for_each
with xa_for_each_range. Since normal API does its own handling of
XArray locking, now the xas_lock and xas_unlock around the loop are
obsolete.

While keeping the code short and simple, the switch to normal API slows
down the loop slightly, which is acceptable since tcmu_blocks_release is
not relevant for performance.

Applied to 5.19/scsi-staging, thanks!
