Right.

The likely/unlikely() stuff is to optimize code, not necessarily the stuff in
the hot path alone, therwise stuff like IS_ERR() would never have it. It surely
does bring value by optimizing the code, surely the result isn't significant
enough but that is fine, every effort counts.

AFAIK, if we are sure of path the code will almost always take, then we should
rather use these and so I am inclined towards keeping them. Though I understand
that using them may result in bad behavior (performance) if they fail.
