644	/** @def RT_LIKELY
645	* Give the compiler a hint that an expression is very likely to hold true.
646	*
647	* Some compilers support explicit branch prediction so that the CPU backend
648	* can hint the processor and also so that code blocks can be reordered such
649	* that the predicted path sees a more linear flow, thus improving cache
650	* behaviour, etc.
651	*
652	* IPRT provides the macros RT_LIKELY() and RT_UNLIKELY() as a way to utilize
653	* this compiler feature when present.
654	*
655	* A few notes about the usage:
656	*
657	* - Generally, use RT_UNLIKELY() with error condition checks (unless you
658	* have some _strong_ reason to do otherwise, in which case document it),
659	* and/or RT_LIKELY() with success condition checks, assuming you want
660	* to optimize for the success path.
661	*
662	* - Other than that, if you don't know the likelihood of a test succeeding
663	* from empirical or other 'hard' evidence, don't make predictions unless
664	* you happen to be a Dirk Gently.
665	*
666	* - These macros are meant to be used in places that get executed a lot. It
667	* is wasteful to make predictions in code that is executed seldomly (e.g.
668	* at subsystem initialization time) as the basic block reording that this
669	* affecs can often generate larger code.
670	*
671	* - Note that RT_SUCCESS() and RT_FAILURE() already makes use of RT_LIKELY()
672	* and RT_UNLIKELY(). Should you wish for prediction free status checks,
673	* use the RT_SUCCESS_NP() and RT_FAILURE_NP() macros instead.
674	*
675	*
676	* @returns the boolean result of the expression.
677	* @param expr The expression that's very likely to be true.
678	* @see RT_UNLIKELY
