Steven Rostedt 088e54658f mm: remove likely() from mapping_unevictable()
The mapping_unevictable() has a likely() around the mapping parameter.
This mapping parameter comes from page_mapping() which has an unlikely()
that the page will be set as PAGE_MAPPING_ANON, and if so, it will return
NULL.  One would think that this unlikely() means that the mapping
returned by page_mapping() would not be NULL, but where page_mapping() is
used just above mapping_unevictable(), that unlikely() is incorrect most
of the time.  This means that the "likely(mapping)" in
mapping_unevictable() is incorrect most of the time.

Running the annotated branch profiler on my main box which runs firefox,
evolution, xchat and is part of my distcc farm, I had this:

The page_mapping() is a static inline, which is why it shows up multiple
times.  The mapping_unevictable() is also a static inline but seems to be
used only once in my setup.

The unlikely in page_mapping() was correct a total of 1909540379 times and
incorrect 1270533123 times, with a 39% being incorrect.  Perhaps this is
enough to remove the unlikely from page_mapping() as well.
