DESCRIPTION

max compares two integers and returns the larger of two.  If the int1 and int2 arguments are not of the specified type the results are undefined. 

Also, this interface may be implemented in a way that causes the arguments to be evaluated multiple times, so callers should beware of side effects.

Driver-defined basic locks, read/write locks, and sleep locks may be held across calls to this function.
