      The implementation tries to have smart handling of cases
      where no pixels need the full filtering for the 8/16 width
      filters, skipping both calculation and writeback of the
      unmodified pixels in those cases. The actual effect of this
      is hard to test with checkasm though, since it tests the
      full filtering, and the benefit depends on how many filtered
      blocks use the shortcut.
      
      Examples of relative speedup compared to the C version, from checkasm:
                                Cortex       A7     A8     A9    A53
      vp9_loop_filter_h_4_8_neon:          2.72   2.68   1.78   3.15
      vp9_loop_filter_h_8_8_neon:          2.36   2.38   1.70   2.91
      vp9_loop_filter_h_16_8_neon:         1.80   1.89   1.45   2.01
      vp9_loop_filter_h_16_16_neon:        2.81   2.78   2.18   3.16
      vp9_loop_filter_mix2_h_44_16_neon:   2.65   2.67   1.93   3.05
      vp9_loop_filter_mix2_h_48_16_neon:   2.46   2.38   1.81   2.85
      vp9_loop_filter_mix2_h_84_16_neon:   2.50   2.41   1.73   2.85
      vp9_loop_filter_mix2_h_88_16_neon:   2.77   2.66   1.96   3.23
      vp9_loop_filter_mix2_v_44_16_neon:   4.28   4.46   3.22   5.70
      vp9_loop_filter_mix2_v_48_16_neon:   3.92   4.00   3.03   5.19
      vp9_loop_filter_mix2_v_84_16_neon:   3.97   4.31   2.98   5.33
      vp9_loop_filter_mix2_v_88_16_neon:   3.91   4.19   3.06   5.18
      vp9_loop_filter_v_4_8_neon:          4.53   4.47   3.31   6.05
      vp9_loop_filter_v_8_8_neon:          3.58   3.99   2.92   5.17
      vp9_loop_filter_v_16_8_neon:         3.40   3.50   2.81   4.68
      vp9_loop_filter_v_16_16_neon:        4.66   4.41   3.74   6.02
      
      The speedup vs C code is around 2-6x. The numbers are quite
      inconclusive though, since the checkasm test runs multiple filterings
      on top of each other, so later rounds might end up with different
      codepaths (different decisions on which filter to apply, based
      on input pixel differences). Disabling the early-exit in the asm
      doesn't give a fair comparison either though, since the C code
      only does the necessary calcuations for each row.
      
      Based on START_TIMER/STOP_TIMER wrapping around a few individual
      functions, the speedup vs C code is around 4-9x.
      
      This is pretty similar in runtime to the corresponding routines
      in libvpx. (This is comparing vpx_lpf_vertical_16_neon,
      vpx_lpf_horizontal_edge_8_neon and vpx_lpf_horizontal_edge_16_neon
      to vp9_loop_filter_h_16_8_neon, vp9_loop_filter_v_16_8_neon
      and vp9_loop_filter_v_16_16_neon - note that the naming of horizonal
      and vertical is flipped between the libraries.)
      
      In order to have stable, comparable numbers, the early exits in both
      asm versions were disabled, forcing the full filtering codepath.
      
                                 Cortex           A7      A8      A9     A53
      vp9_loop_filter_h_16_8_neon:             597.2   472.0   482.4   415.0
      libvpx vpx_lpf_vertical_16_neon:         626.0   464.5   470.7   445.0
      vp9_loop_filter_v_16_8_neon:             500.2   422.5   429.7   295.0
      libvpx vpx_lpf_horizontal_edge_8_neon:   586.5   414.5   415.6   383.2
      vp9_loop_filter_v_16_16_neon:            905.0   784.7   791.5   546.0
      libvpx vpx_lpf_horizontal_edge_16_neon: 1060.2   751.7   743.5   685.2
      
      Our version is consistently faster on on A7 and A53, marginally slower on
      A8, and sometimes faster, sometimes slower on A9 (marginally slower in all
      three tests in this particular test run).

      libxvid: Require availability of mkstemp() · 12db2832
      Diego Biurrun authored
      The replacement code uses tempnam(), which is dangerous.
      Such a fringe feature is not worth the trouble.

      For the transforms up to 8x8, we can fit all the data (including
      temporaries) in registers and just do a straightforward transform
      of all the data. For 16x16, we do a transform of 4x16 pixels in
      4 slices, using a temporary buffer. For 32x32, we transform 4x32
      pixels at a time, in two steps of 4x16 pixels each.
      
      Examples of relative speedup compared to the C version, from checkasm:
                               Cortex       A7     A8     A9    A53
      vp9_inv_adst_adst_4x4_add_neon:     3.39   5.83   4.17   4.01
      vp9_inv_adst_adst_8x8_add_neon:     3.79   4.86   4.23   3.98
      vp9_inv_adst_adst_16x16_add_neon:   3.33   4.36   4.11   4.16
      vp9_inv_dct_dct_4x4_add_neon:       4.06   6.16   4.59   4.46
      vp9_inv_dct_dct_8x8_add_neon:       4.61   6.01   4.98   4.86
      vp9_inv_dct_dct_16x16_add_neon:     3.35   3.44   3.36   3.79
      vp9_inv_dct_dct_32x32_add_neon:     3.89   3.50   3.79   4.42
      vp9_inv_wht_wht_4x4_add_neon:       3.22   5.13   3.53   3.77
      
      Thus, the speedup vs C code is around 3-6x.
      
      This is mostly marginally faster than the corresponding routines
      in libvpx on most cores, tested with their 32x32 idct (compared to
      vpx_idct32x32_1024_add_neon). These numbers are slightly in libvpx's
      favour since their version doesn't clear the input buffer like ours
      do (although the effect of that on the total runtime probably is
      negligible.)
      
                                 Cortex       A7       A8       A9      A53
      vp9_inv_dct_dct_32x32_add_neon:    18436.8  16874.1  14235.1  11988.9
      libvpx vpx_idct32x32_1024_add_neon 20789.0  13344.3  15049.9  13030.5
      
      Only on the Cortex A8, the libvpx function is faster. On the other cores,
      ours is slightly faster even though ours has got source block clearing
      integrated.

      This includes fixes by Henrik Gramner.
      
      The forward transforms are derived from the reference encoder.
