Ingo,

I guess this can go through you. This is a start of clean ups to
get rid of (un)likelys that are at least 50% incorrect. This series
has some that are 100% incorrect.

The branch profiler used is from 2.6.29 which does not have the
fixed header that is in tip. This branch is also based off of
2.6.29 and not tip.

Perhaps, since some of these cases are 100% wrong they can simply
be reversed. I'm choosing to just remove the annotation, and then
later I'll be using the full branch profiler to look for candidates
for adding (un)likelys. That way each added annotation can be
scrutinized individually.

Please pull the latest annotate-branch/cleanups tree, which can be found at:
