Revert "btrfs: turn delayed_nodes_tree into an XArray"

This reverts commit 253bf575

.

Revert the xarray conversion, there's a problem with potential
sleep-inside-spinlock [1] when calling xa_insert that triggers GFP_NOFS
allocation. The radix tree used the preloading mechanism to avoid
sleeping but this is not available in xarray.

Conversion from spin lock to mutex is possible but at time of rc6 is
riskier than a clean revert.
