Subject: [RFC][PATCH] signal: replace !likely with unlikely!
Date: Thu, 11 Sep 2014 08:48:16 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1410396496-13845-1-git-send-email-roy.qing.li@gmail.com> (raw)

From: Li RongQing <roy.qing.li@gmail.com> 

!likely() is hard to be understood, and I do not know if compiler can
optimise this condition, but unlikely(!()) is clear
