mm/page_alloc.c: remove unlikely() from the current_order test
In __rmqueue_fallback(), current_order loops down from MAX_ORDER - 1 to the order passed. MAX_ORDER is typically 11 and pageblock_order is typically 9 on x86. Integer division truncates, so pageblock_order / 2 is 4. For the first eight iterations, it's guaranteed that current_order >= pageblock_order / 2 if it even gets that far! So just remove the unlikely(), it's completely bogus.
