Subject: [PATCH 1/3] testing/raix-tree/maple: Increase readers and reduce delay for faster machines

From: "Liam R. Howlett" <howlett@...il.com>

Faster machines may not see the initial or updated value in the race
condition.  Reduce the delay so that faster machines are less likely to
fail testing of the race conditions.
