If it does exactly the same as:
count = FFMAX(FFMIN(avctx->extradata_size / 3, count), 0);

Then, yes...as I understand it, it clips simply between, but please note
that including 1 << bps directly in the line will later require a change
when HAM comes (because for ham it's not 1 << bps but 1 << hbits instead.

But remember, this will make the code larger in size and slower in speed
(the if check if it's 0 has to be done anyway).
So unless there aren't other reasons for take the above stuff, I'ld
prefer if (count > 0)

There's no reason to clip to 0 first and then check if it's 0 (esp. when
I can do neg. or null checks with one if and one asm instruction, as
said it's just a change from jne to jge or je to jle...

So for now, just tell me, should I change that line right now to if
(count) instead of if (count > 0)?

The final word is upon you!
