Reasonable function to want. Is radix_tree_scan_hole the best name?
What about radix_tree_next_hole or _find_next_hole? (Andrew, any
suggestions?)

Minor nit: I think it is preferred to have index++; on its own line.

Some suggestions on the comment:

/**
* radix_tree_next_hole - find the next hole (not-present entry)
* @root: radix tree root
* @index: index key
* @max_scan: maximum range to search
*
* Search the set [index, min(index+max_scan-1, MAX_INDEX)] for the lowest
* indexed hole.
*
* Returns: the index of the hole if found, otherwise returns an index
* outside of the set specified (in which case 'return - index >= max_scan'
* will be true).
*
* radix_tree_next_hole may be called under rcu_read_lock. However, like
* radix_tree_gang_lookup, this will not atomically search a snapshot of the
* tree at a single point in time. For example, if a hole is created at index
* 5, then subsequently a hole is created at index 10, radix_tree_next_hole
* covering both indexes may return 10 if called under rcu_read_lock.

Don't do this scan_hole_dumb thing. Just implement it in place.
