perf maps: Remove check_invariants() from maps__lock()
I found that the debug build was a slowed down a lot by the maps lock code since it checks the invariants whenever it gets the pointer to the lock. This means it checks twice the invariants before and after the access. Instead, let's move the checking code within the lock area but after any modification and remove it from the read paths. This would remove (more than) half of the maps lock overhead. The time for perf report with a huge data file (200k+ of MMAP2 events).
