Strangely the previous commit caused a slowdown in overall performance and
this fixes it. I used gcc 7.3.1. Does anybody else see this?

No, but since this command exists nearly immediately for me
I see a 5% deviation even without your patch.

Thanks for checking it. I tested my series on top of 
1b126ec4087ab5d87d413116bee666495b0d2d3e, and can still reproduce the 
speedup on it. On the other hand, on current git head, I can no longer 
reproduce the speedup. Whatever this is, the fact that using av_unlikely 
fixed it is probably just luck.

So considering the mixed feelings about av_(un)likely in general, I'll 
just drop patch 1 and 3.

Thanks,
Marton

I would love to test a command line where it makes a (very) clear
difference, I wonder a little about the claim that it would help
(measurably) on some systems but not others.
