We currently mostly do not empty the MMX state in our MMX
DSP functions; instead we only do so before code that might
be using x87 code. This is a violation of the System V i386 ABI
(and maybe of other ABIs, too):
"The CPU shall be in x87 mode upon entry to a function. Therefore,
every function that uses the MMX registers is required to issue an
emms or femms instruction after using MMX registers, before returning
or calling another function." (See 2.2.1 in [1])
This patch does not intend to change all these functions to abide
by the ABI; it only does so for ff_simple_idct_mmx, as this
function can by called by external users, because it is exported
via the avdct API. Without this, the following fragment will
assert (on x86_32, as ff_simple_idct_mmx is not used on x64):
int16_t __attribute__ ((aligned (16))) block[64];
AVDCT *dct = avcodec_dct_alloc();
dct->idct_algo = FF_IDCT_AUTO;
avcodec_dct_init(dct);
dct->idct(block);
av_assert0_fpu();
