Sorry for coming back to this again, but we probably ought to drop this 
check completely.

This is allowed on the device signaling side, so I'm not quite sure what 
that protects us from.


Also we do the check at this point in the signal_timeline_ioctl() 
function but there is nothing that says that when we later call the 
add_point() function this condition still holds.
