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
