I do not think we should be using unlikely here (and in another spot in the
driver): unlikely should be used only if the condition happens extremely
infrequently in all of the systems. Here, if a box happens to have a device
that uses transfers larger than 32 bytes we'd be hitting unlikely branch pretty
often.

Thanks.
