Why is this bzero needed?

> +		resort_add(&structures__tree, str);

resort_add will call rb_link_node(&str->rb_node, parent, p); and it, in
turn:

static inline void rb_link_node(struct rb_node * node, struct rb_node * parent,
                                struct rb_node ** rb_link)
{
        node->rb_parent_color = (unsigned long )parent;
        node->rb_left = node->rb_right = NULL;

        *rb_link = node;
}

And:

struct rb_node
{
        unsigned long  rb_parent_color;
#define RB_RED          0
#define RB_BLACK        1
        struct rb_node *rb_right;
        struct rb_node *rb_left;
} __attribute__((aligned(sizeof(long))))

So all the fields are being initialized in the operation right after the
bzero(), no?
