I just added unlikely/likely for all erofs error handling paths or
rare happened cases at first... (That is all in my thought...)

I don't have some benchmark data for each unlikely/likely case (and I have
no idea "is that worth to take time to benchmark rather than do another more
useful stuffs"), so..I have to kill them all...
