x86: h264: Don't keep data in the redzone across function calls on 64 bit unix
We know that the called function (ff_chroma_inter_body_mmxext)
doesn't touch the redzone, and thus will be kept intact - thus,
this doesn't fix any bug per se.
However, valgrind's memcheck tool intentionally assumes that the
redzone is clobbered on every function call and function return
(see a long comment in valgrind/memcheck/mc_main.c). This avoids
false positives in that tool, at the cost of an extra stack pointer
adjustment.
The other alternative would be a valgrind suppression for this issue,
but that's an extra burden for everybody that wants to run libavcodec
within valgrind.
