liburcu doesn't have kfree_rcu (or anything similar). Despite that, we
can hack around it in a trivial fashion, by adding a wrapper.
This wrapper only works for maple_nodes, and not anything else (due to us
not being able to know rcu_head offsets in any way), and thus we take
advantage of the type checking to avoid future silent breakage.
