Umm.  No.  You've duplicated xbitmap.c into the test framework, so now it can
slowly get out of sync with the one in lib/.  That's not OK.

Put it back the way it was, with the patch I gave you as patch 1/n
(relocating xbitmap.c from tools/testing/radix-tree to lib/).
Then add your enhancements as patch 2/n.  All you should need to
change in your 1/n from
http://git.infradead.org/users/willy/linux-dax.git/commit/727e401bee5ad7d37e0077291d90cc17475c6392
is a bit of Makefile tooling.  Leave the test suite embedded in the file;
that way people might remember to update the test suite when adding
new functionality.
