mm, page_alloc: add unlikely macro to help compiler optimization
We rarely allocate a page with ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS and it is used in slow
path. For helping compiler optimization, add unlikely macro to
ALLOC_NO_WATERMARKS checking.
This patch doesn't have any effect now, because gcc already optimize this
properly. But we cannot assume that gcc always does right and nobody
re-evaluate if gcc do proper optimization with their change, for example,
it is not optimized properly on v3.10. So adding compiler hint here is
reasonable.
