fib_trie: Use index & (~0ul << n->bits) instead of index >> n->bits
In doing performance testing and analysis of the changes I recently found that by shifting the index I had created an unnecessary dependency. I have updated the code so that we instead shift a mask by bits and then just test against that as that should save us about 2 CPU cycles since we can generate the mask while the key and pos are being processed.
