radix-tree: fix race in gang lookup
If the indirect_ptr bit is set on a slot, that indicates we need to redo the lookup. Introduce a new function radix_tree_iter_retry() which forces the loop to retry the lookup by setting 'slot' to NULL and turning the iterator back to point at the problematic entry. This is a pretty rare problem to hit at the moment; the lookup has to race with a grow of the radix tree from a height of 0. The consequences of hitting this race are that gang lookup could return a pointer to a radix_tree_node instead of a pointer to whatever the user had inserted in the tree.
