Hey, Ok, I wanted to give this another try as I'd really like to rely on the maple tree supporting ULONG_MAX when BITS_PER_LONG is 64 as it makes things a lot simpler overall. As Willy didn't want additional users relying on an external lock I made it so that we don't have to and can just use the mtree lock. However, I need an irq safe variant which is why I added support for this into the maple tree. This is pullable from https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/vfs/vfs.git work.pidfs.maple_tree Thanks!
