I like the naming! The "within" sounds good to me :)
It slightly bothers my "style eye" to see this not returning a value
(void) - but still returning the value via parameter (selector). It may
be slightly more complicated to read when used.

Please consider for first time reading code like:
unsigned int do_something(const struct linear_range *r, unsigned int
val, int *myvalue)
{
	int ret;

	...

	linear_range_get_selector_within(r, val, myvalue);

	...

	return ret;
}

to reading code like:
unsigned int do_something(const struct linear_range *r, unsigned int
val, int *myvalue)
{
	int ret;

	...

	*myvalue = linear_range_get_selector_within(r, val);

	...

	return ret;
}

For me reading the latter shows better where the myvalue is really set.

OTOH, Your suggestion is consistent with the other functions so I am
not asking for a change if this is Ok with others :) Thanks a lot!
