I didn't see the IS_ERR_VALUE problem that Vlastimil mentioned get resolved?

I might suggest ...

+++ b/include/linux/err.h
@@ -19,7 +19,8 @@
 
 #ifndef __ASSEMBLY__
 
-#define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) unlikely((unsigned long)(void *)(x) >= (unsigned long)-MAX_ERRNO)
+#define __IS_ERR_VALUE(x) ((unsigned long)(void *)(x) >= (unsigned long)-MAX_ERRNO)
+#define IS_ERR_VALUE(x) unlikely(__IS_ERR_VALUE(x))
 
 static inline void * __must_check ERR_PTR(long error)
 {

and then you can use __IS_ERR_VALUE() which removes the unlikely() problem.
