Thanks for adding the tests.  I'm just trying to figure out how to best
address testing this in RCU mode. And by testing it I mean add tests in
RCU that does this and detect the failure by modifying your code, then
change it back and have it pass the test by falling back to node store.
This would need to change tools/testing/radix-tree/maple.c to update the
testing there.
