How about this patch. I managed to avoid getting into 64-bit
calculations because I realised that all sample values are uint32_t.
Absolute delta values of those also fit into uint32_t. If you always do
the subtraction in the right order, you never even get a negative value
that you have to correct. Overall I also didn't introduce more
conditional jumps, but I have probably changed the amount of code in
each arm of the conditions.

For review, I left a bunch of //-comments in that I'd remove before
committing but they may be useful to follow the changes. Since the diff
may be a bit annoying to read, I also include the new version of the
code (it is all fairly closely together).

I compile-tested the below but have not run it.
