   Thanks. I've merged the patch into my tree.
   Hum, except that the kernel oopses with this patch. And I think the
problem is in rbtree_postorder_for_each_entry_safe(). How are those tests
for NULL supposed to work? For example if the tree is empty, 'pos' will be
NULL and you'll call rb_next_postorder(&NULL->field) which is pretty much
guaranteed to oops if 'field' doesn't have offset 0 in the structure...
	

You're absolutely right, those NULL checks are wrong when the rb_node isn't the first element. Fix incoming shortly.
