Right, thanks.

Yeah, I would structure it as a 'goto' to undo the locking to avoid the
if (!ret) nesting, and move the unlock to just before the return:

if (ret)
goto unlock;

...
*startp = mas.index;

unlock:
mtree_unlock(mt);
return ret;

mas_empty_area() is an external interface and so already decodes the
error in the node using mas_is_err(), so this can be dropped completely.

I don't think holding the lock for the one extra assignment will make a
difference.
