pidfs: use maple tree
Hey,
Ok, I wanted to give this another try as I'd really like to rely on the
maple tree supporting ULONG_MAX when BITS_PER_LONG is 64 as it makes
things a lot simpler overall.
As Willy didn't want additional users relying on an external lock I made
it so that we don't have to and can just use the mtree lock.
However, I need an irq safe variant which is why I added support for
this into the maple tree.
This is pullable from

Thanks!
