The maple tree register cache is based on a much more modern data structure
than the rbtree cache and makes optimisation choices which are probably
more appropriate for modern systems than those made by the rbtree cache.

I do not think these driver care much about the cache type. Optimal one
might even depend on the architecture. I wonder if we could have
something like REGCACHE_DEFAULT to signal that whatever is the "best
default" implementation it should be used?
Thanks.

I do sometimes wonder about that but there's also been enough issues with the earlier stage of the transition and shaking out bugs in the new code that it makes me a bit nervous about using one. It has also been a useful exercise to go through and actually look at the users, but that could be done any time.
