Andrew, this small patch makes the radixtree tester program from
        http://www.zip.com.au/~akpm/linux/patches/stuff/rtth.tar.gz
run OK, with the latest radix tree code in linux-2.6.17-rc5-mm2.

It regulates the return value to 0/1 for functions
radix_tree_tag_get() and radix_tree_tagged().

On i386, test_bit(nr, addr) will return 0 or 1 only when nr is
a constant -- it uses (expr != 0).

If nr is a variable it will return either 0 or -1 because it uses:

        __asm__ __volatile__(
                "btl %2,%1\n\tsbbl %0,%0"
                :"=r" (oldbit)
                :"m" (*addr),"Ir" (nr));
        return oldbit;

btl %2,%1 sets the carry flag if the selected bit is set.

sbbl %0,%0 subtracts a register from itself and then subtracts one
from the result if the carry flag is set.
