Umm, is this really correct? I see two problems:
1) You may need internal tree nodes at various levels but you seem to
account only for the level 1.
2) The rounding doesn't seem right because RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE+2 nodes may
require 3 nodes at level 1 if the indexes are like:
i_0 | i_1 .. i_{RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE} | i_{RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE+1}
^ ^
node boundary node boundary
Otherwise the patch looks good.
