Hmm... OK.  So, to answer to your question, the 'tid' is expected to wrap.
That's why we use:

	if (tid_geq(tid, iter->i_sync_tid))

instead of:

	if (tid >= iter->i_sync_tid)

(The second patch in v3 actually fixed a few places where the tid_*()
helpers weren't being used.)

But your question shows me that my patch is wrong as '0' may actually be a
valid 'tid' value.
