I am starting to look and remove some of these likely/unlikely hint that are 100% wrong on some very sane configuration (arm64 baremetal hosts running a webserver).
So far, these are the fixes I have in flight now.
Nice. Thanks for letting me know. I'm happy to see that someone besides me is using the annotated branch profiler to fix real issues in the kernel.
I would love it if more people did the same. Anyway, please advertise this as much as possible. If it shows that it is helping to fix real bugs, maybe it would attract the interest of more developers, and more importantly, it keeps the tooling in place. I'm constantly fighting to keep it from being removed from the kernel :-p
