655	/** @def RT_LIKELY
656	* Give the compiler a hint that an expression is very likely to hold true.
657	*
658	* Some compilers support explicit branch prediction so that the CPU backend
659	* can hint the processor and also so that code blocks can be reordered such
660	* that the predicted path sees a more linear flow, thus improving cache
661	* behaviour, etc.
662	*
663	* IPRT provides the macros RT_LIKELY() and RT_UNLIKELY() as a way to utilize
664	* this compiler feature when present.
665	*
666	* A few notes about the usage:
667	*
668	* - Generally, use RT_UNLIKELY() with error condition checks (unless you
669	* have some _strong_ reason to do otherwise, in which case document it),
670	* and/or RT_LIKELY() with success condition checks, assuming you want
671	* to optimize for the success path.
672	*
673	* - Other than that, if you don't know the likelihood of a test succeeding
674	* from empirical or other 'hard' evidence, don't make predictions unless
675	* you happen to be a Dirk Gently.
676	*
677	* - These macros are meant to be used in places that get executed a lot. It
678	* is wasteful to make predictions in code that is executed seldomly (e.g.
679	* at subsystem initialization time) as the basic block reording that this
680	* affecs can often generate larger code.
681	*
682	* - Note that RT_SUCCESS() and RT_FAILURE() already makes use of RT_LIKELY()
683	* and RT_UNLIKELY(). Should you wish for prediction free status checks,
684	* use the RT_SUCCESS_NP() and RT_FAILURE_NP() macros instead.
685	*
686	*
687	* @returns the boolean result of the expression.
688	* @param expr The expression that's very likely to be true.
