So I did this and quickly spotted a problem that when you use
__radix_tree_replace() to clear an entry, it will leave tags for that entry
set and that results in surprises. So I think I'll leave the code with
radix_tree_delete() for now.
It would probably make sense to make __radix_tree_replace() to clear tags
when we replace entry with NULL or at least WARN if some tags are set...
What do you think?
