It is not directly related to the reintroduction of line-by-line
algorithm, but in the simplification and maintenability effort, I
changed a bit the function to avoid having multiple place computing the
x_start/pixel_count values. I don't see an interrest to extract it, it
will be just a translation of the few lines into the calling place.

For crtc_x_limit I just copied the crtc_y_limit. I will change both to u16

Thinks for your review, I spend a lot of time writing this and thinking to
all the edge cases.
One thing I forgot is to clamp dst.x1 of the destination buffer. It will
be fixed in my v4.

Hoo, I did not know that gcc can warn when using enums, I will definitly
do it for the v4.

I don't think it's a good idea to OOPS inside a driver. An error here is
maybe dangerous, but is not fatal to the kernel. Maybe you know how to do
a "local" OOPS to break only this driver and not the whole kernel?
For the v4 I will keep a DRM_ERROR and return 0.

I don't realy know how to name it. What I like with ARGB8888 is that it's
clear that the values are 8 bits and in argb format.
Do you think that `argb_u8_to_argb_u16`, with a new structure
pixel_argb_u8 will be better? (like PATCH 6/9 with pixel_yuv_u8).
If so, I will introduce the argb_u8 structure in an other commit.

Yes, you are right, but after thinking about it, neither out_pixel < end
and while (count) are conveying "this loop will copy `count` pixels. I
think a for-loop here is more understandable. There is no ambiguity in the
number of pixels written and less error-prone. I will replace
while (count)
by
for(int i = 0; i < count; i++)
