Please don't re-state code in your commit messages.

Try to focus on what you did, and not why.

ie: Aligned mtree_alloc_range() to use the same internal function as
mas_empty_area().

Yeah, evolution of the code converged on the same design.  Thanks for
seeing this.

Let's just drop mtree_alloc_range() and mtree_alloc_rrange() and
whatever else you found here.  They were planned to simplify the mmap
code allocations, but since there would need to be arch involvement
(coloring, etc) and alignment, etc; it is better to leave this job to
the mm code itself.
