[PATCH v5 12/70] mm/mmap: Use the maple tree in find_vma() instead of the rbtree.

From: "Liam R. Howlett" <Liam.Howlett at Oracle.com>

Using the maple tree interface mt_find() will handle the RCU locking and
will start searching at the address up to the limit, ULONG_MAX in this
case.

Add kernel documentation to this API.
