Sorry, the bug is caused by the returning line:

        return slot;

It should be

        return &slot;

The patch originally applies to
        
                        void *radix_tree_lookup()
        
But in -mm the function turns into
        
                        void **__lookup_slot()

And in my radixtree patch, it is

                        void *radix_tree_lookup_node()

The prototypes changed forth and back, so the problem was never discovered.

[PATCH] radix-tree: Remove unnecessary indirections and clean up code

is only partially merged into -mm tree. This patch completes it.
