Re: [PATCH v2] maple_tree: Make maple state reusable after mas_empty_area()

* Peng Zhang <zhangpeng.00@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> [230505 10:59]:
> Make mas->min and mas->max point to a node range instead of a leaf entry
> range. This allows mas to still be usable after mas_empty_area() returns.
> Users would get unexpected results from other operations on the maple
> state after calling the affected function.
