The unlikely() makes sense in data-path only and mostly it doesn't give
any performance advantage, kcalloc() in this function means that this
function is not performance oriented.
As general note, as long as this code will leave impression of
not-stable enough, we will have hard time to accept it. The overuse of
WARN_ON(), debug prints and micro-optimizations add to such feeling.
