This snippet does not belong to this patchset...since the same check
(for tsk->delays) is
being used elsewhere in the delay accounting code, changes to use of
likely/unlikely should
be done elsewhere too, if deemed necesssary.

Otherwise patch looks good though I've not tested whether delay
accounting works unaffected
(don't see any reason why it shouldn't).
