    sync: fix corner-case in triggering idle alarms
    
    ProcessInputEvent() resets the device idle times. If idle time was higher than
    the lower bracket, this should trigger an event in the idle time wakeup
    handler.
    
    If processing is slow, the idle time may advance past the lower bracket
    between the reset and the time the BlockHandler is called. In that case, we'd
    never schedule a wakeup to handle the event, causing us to randomly miss
    events.
    
    Ran tests with a neg transition trigger on 5ms with 200 repeats of the test
    and it succeeded. Anything below that gets a bit tricky to make sure the
    server sees the same idle time as the client usleeps for.
