x86: use emms after ff_int32_to_float_fmul_scalar_sse
Intel's Instruction Set Reference (as of September 2015) clearly states that cvtpi2ps switches to MMX state. Actual CPUs do not switch if the source is a memory location. The Instruction Set Reference from 1999 (Order Number 243191) describes this behaviour but all later versions I've seen have make no distinction whether MMX registers or memory is used as source. The documentation for the matching SSE2 instruction to convert to double (cvtpi2pd) was fixed (see the valgrind bug https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=210264). It will take time to get a clarification and fixes in place. In the meantime it makes sense to change ff_int32_to_float_fmul_scalar_sse to be correct according to the documentation. The vast majority of users will have SSE2 so a change to the SSE version has little effect. Fixes fate-checkasm on x86 valgrind targets.
