[Patch v2 1/2] lib/rbtree: set successor's parent unconditionally

From: Wei Yang

Both in Case 2 and 3, we exchange n and s. This mean no matter whether
child2 is NULL or not, successor's parent should be assigned to node's.

This patch takes this step out to make it explicit and reduce the
ambiguity.

Besides, this step reduces some symbol size like rb_erase().
