Oh no, you are not right.
We add jump to one path and split basic blocks on the other.
In case the path with jump is the frequent one, BB reorder should
put the second basic block of the split one after that, killing jump
on frequent part and emitting it to the infrequent.
So still I would not mess up with the frequencies here.
