Subject: [PATCH v2 10/12] rbtree: optimize case selection logic in __rb_erase_color()

In __rb_erase_color(), we have to select one of 3 cases depending on the
color on the 'other' node children. If both children are black, we flip
a few node colors and iterate. Otherwise, we do either one or two
tree rotations, depending on the color of the 'other' child opposite
to 'node', and then we are done.

The corresponding logic had duplicate checks for the color of the 'other'
child opposite to 'node'. It was checking it first to determine if both
children are black, and then to determine how many tree rotations are
required. Rearrange the logic to avoid that extra check.
