Here, I think you need to count with
DIV_ROUND_UP(N + RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE - 1, RADIX_TREE_MAP_SIZE) to propely
account for the situation b) I described.

Otherwise I agree with your math (given the limitation on N). But please
add a comment explaining how we arrived to the math in
RADIX_TREE_PRELOAD_MAX. Thanks!
Another option I could live with is the one Matthew described - rely on
inserted range being aligned, but then comment about it and add some
assertion checking it.
