Thanks for the patch.  This should indeed be exported.

What uses it? Don't we export only things used by in-kernel modules?

mas_preallocate() is part of the maple tree's 'Advanced API'. All other functions of this API are exported already.

More specifically, e.g. mas_store_prealloc() is exported which doesn't make a lot of sense without mas_preallocate() being available too.

I don't think it is used outside of mm yet, but as a generic tree implementation maple tree is pretty likely to be used in code built as module, e.g. drivers.
