One note on all these patches, but especially this one is that I think
they're way too liberal with unlikely()s.  You really don't need to do
this for every single error case.  Please reserve them for places where
you _know_ there is a benefit, or that the compiler is doing things that
you _know_ are blatantly wrong.
