[PATCH] Remove not needed __builtin_expect due to malloc predictor.

[Martin Liška]

Hi.

After we introduced new non-NULL malloc predictor, we can remove these 
__builtin_expects.
Predictors will change in following way:

Before:

Predictions for bb 5
  first match heuristics: 10.00%
  combined heuristics: 10.00%
  __builtin_expect heuristics of edge 5->6: 10.00%
  call heuristics of edge 5->6 (ignored): 33.00%
  loop exit heuristics of edge 5->9 (ignored): 5.50%

After:

Predictions for bb 5
  first match heuristics: 0.04%
  combined heuristics: 0.04%
  pointer (on trees) heuristics of edge 5->6 (ignored): 30.00%
  malloc returned non-NULL heuristics of edge 5->6: 0.04%
  call heuristics of edge 5->6 (ignored): 33.00%
  loop exit heuristics of edge 5->9 (ignored): 5.50%


Maybe there are similar allocation-related expects, but I haven't found them.
Ready after it survives regression tests?

2018-08-10  Martin Liska  <mli...@suse.cz>

        * libsupc++/new_op.cc (new): Remove __builtin_expect as malloc
        predictor can handle that.
        * libsupc++/new_opa.cc: Likewise.
        * libsupc++/new_opnt.cc (new): Likewise.
