Subject: [IPV4]: Remove likely in ip_rcv_finish()
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0182bd2b1e2fb45a55f110795bfdb9aa5f6c6b0b;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

[IPV4]: Remove likely in ip_rcv_finish()

This is another result from my likely profiling tool
(dwalker@mvista.com just sent the patch of the profiling tool to
linux-kernel mailing list, which is similar to what I use).

On my system (not very busy, normal development machine within a
VMWare workstation), I see a 6/5 miss/hit ratio for this "likely".
