Hmm, after thinking a bit I am not sure this is the right way to go.
Indeed, we try to avoid likly()/unlikely(), unless this is really
hot-path. Some kernel developers even think these hints should never
be used. So I'd say, the right thing would bo to remove unlikely()
from IS_ERR() macro instead.
