Make syncpoint expiration checks always use the same logic used by the hardware. This ensures that there are no race conditions that could occur because of the hardware triggering a syncpoint interrupt and then the driver disagreeing. One situation where this could occur is if a job incremented a syncpoint too many times -- then the hardware would trigger an interrupt, but the driver would assume that a syncpoint value greater than the syncpoint's max value is in the future, and not clean up the job.

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.
