It is not the case if CONFIG_BUG and HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON are not set.

Yeah, but that's like the 1% of the cases -- and those probably don't even care
about the branch prediction (I could be wrong). So overall I like getting rid of
explicit BUG_ON(unlikely(... calls. In fact there's a _reason_ why there are so
few of them in the kernel.

Thanks,

I agree with you that this change is welcomed and I would like to see it
is accepted.

My main concern that I would expect to see it's coming after the change
of BUG_ON definition to be similar in all places, with "unlikely" in all
definitions, and not instead.

... but I believe you do have some left:

drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c:                BUG_ON(unlikely(count > ivecs));
drivers/scsi/scsi_lib.c:                BUG_ON(unlikely(count > queue_max_integrity_segments(rq->q)));
kernel/sched/core.c:    BUG_ON(unlikely(task_stack_end_corrupted(prev)));

Thanks for your review, the left have been sended out already in two other patches.

So given that the 'unlikely' is based on CONFIG_BUG/HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON, the
changelog needs to be rewritten. Ie mentioning at least why it should be
ok to drop the redundant predictions: (1) For !CONFIG_BUG cases, the bug call
is a no-op, so we couldn't care less and the change is ok. (2) ppc and
mips, which HAVE_ARCH_BUG_ON, do not rely on branch predictions as it seems
to be pointless[1] and thus callers should not be trying to push an optimization
in the first place.

Also, I think that all the changes should be in the same patch. Logically,
this is a tree wide change, and trivial enough. But I don't really have a
preference.

Thanks,
Davidlohr
