This patch fixes a disagreement about the form of REG_BR_PRED.
I came across it as an rtl-checking ICE when inverting a jump
after dbr_schedule.

REG_BR_PRED used to be just a single int (and is still documented
that way, although I'm going to chicken out of fixing that).
dbr_schedule created the notes at the end, so that targets could tell
whether the branch was assumed to be likely-taken or not.  However,
no target now uses this information, and all other references to the
notes are for the new 2-int style.  This patch therefore removes the
old code as dead.

Tested on mips64-linux-gnu and applied.
