[dm-devel] [PATCH] dm-writecache: add unlikely for returned value of rb_next/prev

[Huaisheng Ye]

From: Huaisheng Ye <yehs1 at lenovo.com>

In functions writecache_discard and writecache_find_entry, there is
high probablity that the pointer of structure rb_node doesn't equal
to NULL. Add unlikly for the pointer node.
