intel: Replace wraparound test logic in bufmgr_fake. Again.
I'd swapped the operands, so if we weren't in lockstep with the hardware we said the sequence was always passed. Additionally, a race was available that we might have failed at recovering from. Instead, I've replaced the logic with new stuff that should be more robust and not rely on all the parties in userland following the same IRQ_EMIT() == 1 protocol. Also, in a radical departure from past efforts, include a long comment describing the failure modes and how we're working around them. Thanks to haihao for catching the original issue.
