A simple condition for checking if you exceeded number of coefficients will be
added anyway (probably by you too).

1) find somebody who can convert transform into lifting scheme so you can do
it inplace (yes, very realistic)
2) have one temporary buffer for merging and store all bands in the same
plane:

   (coeffs)             (tmp)        (coeffs again)
LL0 | LH0 |  LH1       L0           band0   |  LH1
----+-----+            ---                  |
HL0 | HH0 |        =>  H0     =>            |
----+-----+------                   --------+------
   HL1    |  HH1                    HL1     |  HH1

So you'll have the same stride for input high and low coeffs too.
