Namhyung Kim 3cdd98b42d perf maps: Remove check_invariants() from maps__lock()
I found that the debug build was a slowed down a lot by the maps lock
code since it checks the invariants whenever it gets the pointer to the
lock.  This means it checks twice the invariants before and after the
access.

Instead, let's move the checking code within the lock area but after any
modification and remove it from the read paths.  This would remove (more
than) half of the maps lock overhead.

The time for perf report with a huge data file (200k+ of MMAP2 events).
