I'd say just:

+ * @x_start: The start offset

It describes the parameter, and the paragraph below explains the why.

It would be explaining, that x_start applies to output_buffer, but
input_buffer is always read starting from 0.

You named it pixel_count, and it counts pixels, not bytes. It's not a
copy but a blend into output_buffer.

Are those input values to min_t() really of type size_t? Or why is
size_t here?

I thought it was a count, not a limit?

"Limit" sounds to me like "end", and end - start = count.

The details aside, this is a good move.
