I think there is a larger cleanup that can be done here.  It looks like
mte_parent_enum() is called from one location and that location is a
wrapper.

The check for the root bit should also probably trigger a WARN_ON() and
still return 0.  I don't think the callers are doing enough to validate
it - although they should never reach this function with a root node.
And, in fact, I am not doing enough in the test code since I didn't
guard this correctly in the verification of the parent slot before
calling this function.

Thanks for pointing this out.  I will send out a patch to clean this up
shortly.
