[Xen-devel] [PATCH v2 04/20] rb_tree: make clear distinction between two different cases in rb_erase()



There are two cases when a node, having 2 childs, is erased:
'normal case': the successor is not the right-hand-child of the node to be
erased
'special case': the successor is the right-hand child of the node to be erased

Here some ascii-art, with following symbols (referring to the code):
O: node to be deleted
N: the successor of O
P: parent of N
C: child of N
L: some other node

normal case:

                   O                         N
                  / \                       / \
                 /   \                     /   \
                L     \                   L     \
               / \     P      ---->      / \     P
                      / \                       / \
                     /                         /
                    N                         C
                     \                       / \
                      \
                       C
                      / \

special case:
                  O|P                        N
                  / \                       / \
                 /   \                     /   \
                L     \                   L     \
               / \     N      ---->      /       C
                        \                       / \
                         \
                          C
                         / \

Notice that for the special case we don't have to reconnect C to N.
