Subject: [PATCH] maple_tree: remove rcu_read_lock() from mt_validate()

The write lock should be held when validating the tree to avoid updates racing with checks. Holding the rcu read lock during a large tree validation may also cause a prolonged rcu read window and "rcu_preempt detected stalls" warnings.
