The compiler should hopefully optimize that for you.

OK, I see what you mean now. It's "clamp to boundary" vs. "move within 
boundaries and clamp if necessary". I haven't look at the caller to see what 
is needed here. Whatever option you choose, it would make sense to rename the 
function accordingly (and possibly move it to the V4L2 core).
