I run:
	make ctags

run vim

type:
	:ts rb_node

then I scanned the list for things that are from include/linux

and found this
 20 F   s    rb_node           include/linux/rbtree.h
               struct rb_node {

I select 20 and it takes me to include/linux/rbtree.h

and puts me at the line containing this:

	struct rb_node {
		unsigned long  __rb_parent_color;
		struct rb_node *rb_right;
		struct rb_node *rb_left;
	} __attribute__((aligned(sizeof(long))));
	  /* The alignment might seem pointless, but allegedly CRIS needs it */
