perf maps: Avoid RC_CHK use after free
The case of __maps__fixup_overlap_and_insert where the "new" maps covers existing mappings can create a use-after-free with reference count checking enabled. The issue is that "pos" holds a map pointer from maps_by_address that is put from maps_by_address but then used to look for a map in maps_by_name (the compared map is now a use-after-free). The issue stems from using maps__remove which redoes some of the searches already done by __maps__fixup_overlap_and_insert, so optimize the code (by avoiding repeated searches) and avoid the use-after-free by inlining the appropriate removal code.
