So it was news to me that the rb tree code can be used for lockless lookups -
not having looked at lib/rbtree.c in over 10 years :) - I still think it should
be mentioned in the commit message that that's what you're doing and why it's
safe, because it's not exactly common knowledge and lockless stuff deserves
extra scrutiny.

Probably worth a comment, too.
