radix-tree: delete radix_tree_range_tag_if_tagged()
This is an exceptionally complicated function with just one caller (tag_pages_for_writeback). We devote a large portion of the runtime of the test suite to testing this one function which has one caller. By introducing the new function radix_tree_iter_tag_set(), we can eliminate all of the complexity while keeping the performance. The caller can now use a fairly standard radix_tree_for_each() loop, and it doesn't need to worry about tricksy things like 'start' wrapping. The test suite continues to spend a large amount of time investigating this function, but now it's testing the underlying primitives such as radix_tree_iter_resume() and the radix_tree_for_each_tagged() iterator which are also used by other parts of the kernel.
