Quick question:  does "crypto_hash_init()" ever return anything other  
than 0 or 1?  If so this is a subtle bug, as "unlikely()" is  
implemented like this:

# define unlikely(x) __builtin_expect(!!(x), 0)

IMO any usage of likely/unlikely other than if(unlikely()), if(likely 
()) is probably a bug.

Cheers,
