Ok sorry for the mess. My suggestion was to:
       exposureLines = min(frameLengthMax - frameIntegrationDiff, exposureLine);
       exposureLines = max(frameLenghtMin, exposureLines + frameIntegrationDiff);

But as you said this might add (+ frameIntegrationDiff) to the
exposure. I should have probably said:

       exposureLines = min(frameLengthMax - frameIntegrationDiff, exposureLines);
       exposureLines = max(frameLenghtMin - frameIntegrationDiff, exposureLines);

to clamp exposureLines in [min - diff, max - diff] interval
But I now get this is not required, as exposure time might be
shorter than the min frame size, and VBLANK gets adjusted to respect
the min frame size regardless of the exposure time.

IOW the exposure time is clipped by the max frame length ( -
integration diff) but can be shorter than min frame length.

Sorry to have you re-think this twice to disprove my suggestion.

Let's get this merged soon so we can close all points highlighted here
in follow-up patches..
