NAK, NAK, NAK.
I will NAK the hell out of any patch that does that. They're completely
unnecessary, they're commonly used by complete idiots who add them thinking
their code will go faster (and it might - only on their antiquated GCC
3.1), they're religiously used by the same people and won't back down on
using them and finally they're ugly when added to every single bloody
branch and the people who maintain such code will demand they be added to
every single bloody branch for no reason other that what I've just iterated
on.

There are valid reasons to want to use branch probability hints beyond aiding branch prediction. For example, reducing cache pollution in general and loop sizes in particular. Calling people who care about those things idiots and religiously denying the feature is an idiotic thing to do in its own right.
