@last no longer requires initialization with the @comb_start test.

However, all of these are testing for invalid parameters, which I think
we can eliminate if we simply introduce the following at the start of
the function:

        if (!cur_nodes || cur_nodes <= req_nodes ||
            WARN_ON(!req_nodes || !root->rb_root.rb_node))
                return;

At that point we're guaranteed to have any entry for both the above and
below first entry and there must be at least a second entry (or a
driver bug telling us there are more entries than actually exist) for
the next call below.  Thanks,

Alex
