[folded-merged] maple_tree-fix-reverse-iterator-state-when-the-root-disappears.patch removed from -mm tree

[Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org>]

The quilt patch titled
     Subject: maple_tree: fix reverse iterator state when the root disappears
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     maple_tree-fix-reverse-iterator-state-when-the-root-disappears.patch

This patch was dropped because it was folded into maple_tree-fix-rcu-reader-null-dereference-after-the-tree-is-emptied.patch

Subject: maple_tree: fix reverse iterator state when the root disappears
Date: Tue, 03 Nov 2026 04:28:56 +0000

A reverse walk restarting from a dead node can observe a direct root entry
in mas_rewalk() and then an empty root in mas_prev_no_node().  The second
root read returns NULL, but leaves the iterator in ma_root with index and
last both zero.

Consequently, mas_prev_range() and mas_find_range_rev() can report an
empty range of [0, 0] instead of [0, ULONG_MAX].  A subsequent forward
range walk starts at index 1, omitting index 0 from the empty range.

Set ma_none and extend last to ULONG_MAX when the second root read returns
NULL.  Keep the existing encoded-node retry in mas_prev_slot() for a root
that has grown into a node again.

A deterministic userspace Maple test reproduces the stale state through
both reverse range APIs before this change and checks the full empty range
afterwards, including a subsequent forward walk.
