Mike Rapoport contacted me off-list with a regression in running criu. Periodic tests fail with an RCU stall during execution. Although rare, it is possible to hit this with other uses so this patch should be backported to fix the regression. An insufficient node was causing an out-of-bounds access on the node in mas_leaf_max_gap(). The cause was the faulty detection of the new node being a root node when overwriting many entries at the end of the tree. Fix the detection of a new root and ensure there is sufficient data prior to entering the spanning rebalance loop.
