rbtree: Undo augmented trees performance damage and regression
Reimplement augmented RB-trees without sprinkling extra branches
all over the RB-tree code (which lives in the scheduler hot path).
This approach is 'borrowed' from Fabio's BFQ implementation and
relies on traversing the rebalance path after the RB-tree-op to
correct the heap property for insertion/removal and make up for
the damage done by the tree rotations.
For insertion the rebalance path is trivially that from the new
node upwards to the root, for removal it is that from the deepest
node in the path from the to be removed node that will still
be around after the removal.
[ This patch also fixes a video driver regression reported by
Ali Gholami Rudi - the memtype->subtree_max_end was updated
incorrectly. ]
