Dereferencing RCU objects within the RCU callback without the RCU check has caused lockdep to complain. Fix the RCU dereferencing by using the RCU callback lock to ensure the operation is safe. Also stop creating a new lock to use for dereferencing during destruction of the tree or subtree. Instead, pass through a pointer to the tree that has the lock that is held for RCU dereferencing checking. It also does not make sense to use the maple state in the freeing scenario as the tree walk is a special case where the tree no longer has the normal encodings and parent pointers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
