From: Colin Ian King <colin.king@canonical.com>

The comparison of c_entry_count < 0 is never true because c_entry_count
is an unsigned long and hence cannot be negative.  Hence the 'unlikely'
comparison is redundant and can be removed.

Detected by CoverityScan, CID#1462298 ("Macro compares unsigned to 0")
