The line and column numbers for the selection need to start at 1.
Add the checks to prevent invalid input.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this. It potentially breaks userspace (by returning EINVAL now). And the code below should handle this just fine, right:
quoted hunk ↗ jump to hunk
+
  	v->xs = min_t(u16, v->xs - 1, vc->vc_cols - 1);
  	v->ys = min_t(u16, v->ys - 1, vc->vc_rows - 1);
  	v->xe = min_t(u16, v->xe - 1, vc->vc_cols - 1);
?
