Because syncref is unsigned, the first part of that if always evaluates true.
(it will always be >0)

True.  But from the coding POV, it's not so bad to show both "from"

should be cleverer than the programmer and will optimize it out in
anyway :)

Good point.
 
hmm, I thought we had a within_range function (maybe it was driver specific)
