I just skimmed the code of libdrm while I'm trying to understand the
host1x driver. So below is what I found.

Hardcode here. Assume always has 32 syncpts.
Change to a micro wrapped with tegra version ifdef will be better.

This is useless. We already add "1 + num_fences" to num_words above. So
move this "assert" before adding "1 + num_fences" to num_words makes sense.
