Subject: [PATCH v9 14/69] kernel/fork: use maple tree for dup_mmap() during
 forking

From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett@...cle.com>

The maple tree was already tracking VMAs in this function by an earlier
commit, but the rbtree iterator was being used to iterate the list.
Change the iterator to use a maple tree native iterator and switch to the
maple tree advanced API to avoid multiple walks of the tree during insert
operations.  Unexport the now-unused vma_store() function.

For performance reasons we bulk allocate the maple tree nodes.  The node
calculations are done internally to the tree and use the VMA count and
assume the worst-case node requirements.  The VM_DONT_COPY flag does not
allow for the most efficient copy method of the tree and so a bulk loading
algorithm is used.
