Push the sync check from qdio_inspect_queue() down into the two get_*_buffer_frontier() code paths, where we actually need the sync to look at the current queue state. This lets us avoid the check when we know that there is no work on the queue (ie. when q->nr_buf_used is 0). While at it introduce the qdio_sync_*_queue() helpers, so that we can avoid the branch on q->is_input_q when we already know the queue type.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
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.
