Running my likely/unlikely profiler, I discovered that the test in shmem_write_begin() that tests for info->seals as unlikely, is always incorrect. This is because shmem_get_inode() sets info->seals to have F_SEAL_SEAL set by default, and it is unlikely to be cleared when shmem_write_begin() is called. Thus, the if statement is very likely. But as the if statement block only cares about F_SEAL_WRITE and F_SEAL_GROW, change the test to only test those two bits.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
