RDMA/mlx5: Reduce locking in implicit_mr_get_data()

Now that the child MRs are stored in an xarray we can rely on the SRCU
lock to protect the xa_load and use xa_cmpxchg on the slow allocation path
to resolve races with concurrent page fault.

This reduces the scope of the critical section of umem_mutex for implicit
MRs to only cover mlx5_ib_update_xlt, and avoids taking a lock at all if
the child MR is already in the xarray. This makes it consistent with the
normal ODP MR critical section for umem_lock, and the locking approach
used for destroying an unusued implicit child MR.

The MLX5_IB_UPD_XLT_ATOMIC is no longer needed in implicit_get_child_mr()
since it is no longer called with any locks.
