it's just a check if vma->pgoff is out of range or not

/* frames */
struct em28xx_frame_t {
        void *bufmem;
        struct v4l2_buffer buf;
        enum em28xx_frame_state state;
        struct list_head frame;
        unsigned long vma_use_count;
        int top_field;
        int fieldbytesused;
};
