TYP: type read_xml and deprecate passing positional arguments (pandas…

@@ -611,6 +611,7 @@ Other Deprecations
 - Deprecated the ``prefix`` keyword argument in :func:`read_csv` and :func:`read_table`, in a future version the argument will be removed (:issue:`43396`)
 - Deprecated passing non boolean argument to sort in :func:`concat` (:issue:`41518`)
 - Deprecated passing arguments as positional for :func:`read_fwf` other than ``filepath_or_buffer`` (:issue:`41485`):
+- Deprecated passing arguments as positional for :func:`read_xml` other than ``path_or_buffer`` (:issue:`45133`):
 - Deprecated passing ``skipna=None`` for :meth:`DataFrame.mad` and :meth:`Series.mad`, pass ``skipna=True`` instead (:issue:`44580`)
 - Deprecated the behavior of :func:`to_datetime` with the string "now" with ``utc=False``; in a future version this will match ``Timestamp("now")``, which in turn matches :meth:`Timestamp.now` returning the local time (:issue:`18705`)
 - Deprecated :meth:`DateOffset.apply`, use ``offset + other`` instead (:issue:`44522`)
