Steven Rostedt e20e877958 mm: remove unlikely() from page_mapping()
page_mapping() has a unlikely that the mapping has PAGE_MAPPING_ANON set.
But running the annotated branch profiler on a normal desktop system doing
vairous tasks (xchat, evolution, firefox, distcc), it is not really that
unlikely that the mapping here will have the PAGE_MAPPING_ANON flag set:

The page_mapping() is a static inline, which is why it shows up multiple
times.

The unlikely in page_mapping() was correct a total of 1909540379 times and
incorrect 1270533123 times, with a 39% being incorrect.  With this much of
an error, it's best to simply remove the unlikely and have the compiler
and branch prediction figure this out.
