maple_tree: print empty for an empty tree on mt_dump()

Patch series "refine storing null", v5.

When overwriting the whole range with NULL, current behavior is not
correct.

An empty tree is represented by having the tree point to NULL directly. 
An empty tree indicates the entire range (0-ULONG_MAX) is NULL.

A store operation into an existing node that causes 0 - ULONG_MAX to be
equal to NULL may not be restored to an empty state - a node is used to
store the single range instead.  This is wasteful and different from the
initial setup of the tree.

Once the tree is using a single node to store 0 - ULONG_MAX, problems may
arise when storing more values into a tree with the unexpected state of 0
- ULONG being a single range in a node.

User visible issues may mean a corrupt tree and incorrect storage of
information within the tree.  This would be limited to users who create
and then empty a tree by overwriting all values, then try to store more
NULLs into the empty tree.

I cannot come up with an example of any user doing this (users usually
destroy the tree and generally don't keep trying to store NULLs over
NULLs), but patch 4/5 "maple_tree: refine mas_store_root() on storing
NULL" should be backported just in case.


This patch (of 5):

Currently for an empty tree, it would print:

  maple_tree(0x7ffcd02c6ee0) flags 1, height 0 root (nil)
  0: (nil)

This is a little misleading.

Let's print (empty) for an empty tree.
