Here's my attempt at cleaning the mess up.

I'm not claiming it's perfect, but I think it's better. It gets rid of
the ad-hoc arithmetic in radix_tree_descend(), and just makes all that
be inside the is_sibling_entry() logic instead. Which got renamed and
made to actually return the main sibling. So now there is at least
only *one* piece of code that does that range comparison, and I don't
think there is any huge need to explain what's going on, because the
"magic" is unconditional.

Willy?
