perf: arm_spe: Make wakeup range check overflow safe
The current code checks whether the wakeup point is in the current
writable range by comparing it with handle->head + handle->size.
The perf AUX head is a monotonically increasing index, so that addition
can overflow when head is close to ULONG_MAX. In that case, a wakeup
point which is still inside the free space range can be missed.
Use unsigned subtraction to compare the distance from head to wakeup
against the handle->size. This can dismiss the issue when addition
overflow.
This is unlikely to happen in practice, but the change makes the
watermark check logically correct.
