[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 33/47] avcodec/mpegvideo: Provide alignment hint to compiler

From: Andreas Rheinhardt <andreas.rheinhardt at outlook.com>

The underlying element type has always a size of 32B,
so that the pointer is always at least 16B aligned.
Clang uses this to upgrade the (inlined) memset to
aligned stores. GCC doesn't (it does it only when
the alignment hint is provided via __builtin_assume_aligned).
