We wrap the timeline on construction of the next request, but there may
still be requests in flight that have not yet finalized the breadcrumb.
(The breadcrumb is delayed as we need engine-local offsets, and for the
virtual engine that is not known until execution.) As such, by the time
we write to the timeline's HWSP offset it may have changed, and we
should use the value we preserved in the request instead.
Though the window is small and infrequent (at full flow we can expect a
timeline's seqno to wrap once every 30 minutes), the impact of writing
the old seqno into the new HWSP is severe: the old requests are never
completed, and the new requests are completed before they are even
submitted.

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.
