649	/** @def RT_LIKELY
650	* Give the compiler a hint that an expression is very likely to hold true.
651	*
652	* Some compilers support explicit branch prediction so that the CPU backend
653	* can hint the processor and also so that code blocks can be reordered such
654	* that the predicted path sees a more linear flow, thus improving cache
655	* behaviour, etc.
656	*
657	* IPRT provides the macros RT_LIKELY() and RT_UNLIKELY() as a way to utilize
658	* this compiler feature when present.
659	*
660	* A few notes about the usage:
661	*
662	* - Generally, use RT_UNLIKELY() with error condition checks (unless you
663	* have some _strong_ reason to do otherwise, in which case document it),
664	* and/or RT_LIKELY() with success condition checks, assuming you want
665	* to optimize for the success path.
666	*
667	* - Other than that, if you don't know the likelihood of a test succeeding
668	* from empirical or other 'hard' evidence, don't make predictions unless
669	* you happen to be a Dirk Gently.
670	*
671	* - These macros are meant to be used in places that get executed a lot. It
672	* is wasteful to make predictions in code that is executed seldomly (e.g.
673	* at subsystem initialization time) as the basic block reording that this
674	* affecs can often generate larger code.
675	*
676	* - Note that RT_SUCCESS() and RT_FAILURE() already makes use of RT_LIKELY()
677	* and RT_UNLIKELY(). Should you wish for prediction free status checks,
678	* use the RT_SUCCESS_NP() and RT_FAILURE_NP() macros instead.
679	*
680	*
681	* @returns the boolean result of the expression.
682	* @param expr The expression that's very likely to be true.
