As you noticed below, this function may lead to an overflow.  So I planned
to make it return -EOVERFLOW with help of linux/overflow.h.

But now I'm start thinking that finding closest (rounding) value is
overkill.  Instead finding smallest (ceiling) or largest (floor) value is
enough just like in vivid_vid_cap_s_parm() in vivid-vid-cap.c and we don't
need to be bothered with overflows.

The video-i2c driver will use this function with an array of 2 objects
and the vivid driver may also use this function with an array of 5 objects.
So simple linear search is enough for now, but it can be changed to
bsearch without changing external interface if needed sometime.
