Subject: [PATCH v4 4/6] maple_tree: break on convergence in mas_spanning_rebalance()

This allows support for using the vacant height to calculate the worst
case number of nodes needed for wr_rebalance operation.
mas_spanning_rebalance() was seen to perform unnecessary node allocations.
We can reduce allocations by breaking early during the rebalancing loop
once we realize that we have ascended to a common ancestor.
