Do you have a suggestion for a helper function? lpt.c is full of rather
non obvious arithmetic operations and I couldn't find a helper function
that could be reused at least once in the code.

I tried with:

static int lnum_to_pnode_num(struct ubifs_info *c, int lnum)
{
	return (lnum - c->main_first) >> UBIFS_LPT_FANOUT_SHIFT;
}

But I am not sure this really improves things
