Stefano Brivio 9a7712048f netfilter: nft_set_pipapo: Don't abuse unlikely() in pipapo_refill() 
I originally used unlikely() in the if (match_only) clause, which
we hit on the mapping table for the last field in a set, to ensure
we avoid branching to the rest of for loop body, which is executed
more frequently.

However, Pablo reports, this is confusing as it gives the impression
that this is not a common case, and it's actually not the intended
usage of unlikely().

I couldn't observe any statistical difference in matching rates on
x864_64 and aarch64 without it, so just drop it.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
