maple_tree: fix a potential memory leak, OOB access, or other unpredictable bug
In mas_alloc_nodes(), "node->node_count = 0" means to initialize the
node_count field of the new node, but the node may not be a new node. It
may be a node that existed before and node_count has a value, setting it
to 0 will cause a memory leak. At this time, mas->alloc->total will be
greater than the actual number of nodes in the linked list, which may
cause many other errors. For example, out-of-bounds access in
mas_pop_node(), and mas_pop_node() may return addresses that should not be
used. Fix it by initializing node_count only for new nodes.
Also, by the way, an if-else statement was removed to simplify the code.
