Test for yourself :)

config PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES
        bool "Trace likely/unlikely profiler"
        select TRACE_BRANCH_PROFILING
        help
          This tracer profiles all likely and unlikely macros
          in the kernel. It will display the results in:

          /sys/kernel/debug/tracing/trace_stat/branch_annotated

          Note: this will add a significant overhead; only turn this
          on if you need to profile the system's use of these macros.
