Shall do.

I guess we want a cc:stable there?

Belated review: all this code runs at __init time, so every dang
function in there really should be marked __init, data marked
__initdata, etc. Like lib/test_bitmap.c.

I wonder if there's some trick we can do external to the .c file to
have the same effect.

Also, maple_tree_seed():set[] could be static ;). So we don't have to
initialize it at runtime. Better would be static const. Nitpick.
