+/**
+ *	radix_tree_prev_hole    -    find the prev hole (not-present entry)
+ *	@root:		tree root
+ *	@index:		index key
+ *	@max_scan:	maximum range to search
+ *
+ *	Search backwards in the range [max(index-max_scan+1, 0), index]
+ *	for the first hole.
+ *
+ *	Returns: the index of the hole if found, otherwise returns an index
+ *	outside of the set specified (in which case 'index - return >= max_scan'
+ *	will be true). In rare cases of wrap-around, LONG_MAX will be returned.
+ *
+ *	radix_tree_next_hole may be called under rcu_read_lock. However, like
+ *	radix_tree_gang_lookup, this will not atomically search a snapshot of
+ *	the tree at a single point in time. For example, if a hole is created
+ *	at index 10, then subsequently a hole is created at index 5,
+ *	radix_tree_prev_hole covering both indexes may return 5 if called under
+ *	rcu_read_lock.
