Subject[PATCH v2 0/3] 'slot' can be NULL in radix_tree_next_slot()
Date
This adds comments above radix_tree_next_slot() documenting the combination
of factors that prevent us from dereferencing a NULL 'slot' pointer. It
also adds a radix tree unit test so that we can easily catch any unhandled
NULL pointer issues with radix_tree_next_slot().

Changes from V1:
- Instead of adding an explicit check for 'slot' being NULL at the
beginning of radix_tree_next_slot(), document what factors are keeping
us safe instead. (Konstantin)

Ross Zwisler (3):
radix-tree: 'slot' can be NULL in radix_tree_next_slot()
radix-tree tests: add iteration test
radix-tree tests: properly initialize mutex
