Hi Benjamin,

Thanks for posting this so quickly.

As I commented, it would be nice to do some measurements here

I suppose this means that some 10-bit test vectors in Fluster HEVC
test suite are now passing?

Ditto, the test vectors with scaling lists should now pass, any chance
you post the test suite run before and after this series, just for reference?

Thanks again,
