It performs the masking at compilation time rather than run-time, thus saving 
one masking instruction and sparing an implicit clobber on ECX.

However, since we are dealing with constants, we the shift amount could 
*presumably* just as well be fixed in the calling code. Not that I'd know.

To be honest, even if it's good, it inhibits instruction scheduling by the 
compiler. So IMO the threshold should be for assembler to be strictly *better* 
than the C code.

(And I don't know the answer to that question.)

We actually have av_builtin_constant_p. Is it guaranteed that all
compilers supporting inline ASM also support __builtin_constant_p?


I can use av_builtin_constant_p() if you want, but it will be expanded 
to __builtin_constant_p() in all supported compilers, judging by how 
it's defined.

Does this have a performance or codesize impact?


It should behave the same it has until now.


And is the inline ASM actually any good? (When I comment the inline ASM
of NEG_USR32 out, code size actually increases with GCC 11, suggesting
that the inline ASM may be counterproductive as it impairs the compilers
ability to optimize.)


I did not test nor check if removing this ricing is better or not. It 
can be looked at later. Right now, i want lavc to compile with binutils 2.41
