Looks nice. I can't test currently but LGTM.
If you're still looking for room of improvement, maybe it makes sense to
increase the filterAlign for NEON and process more at once (seems to be set at
2 currently for the vertical filter):
const int filterAlign = X86_MMX(cpu_flags) ? 2 :
PPC_ALTIVEC(cpu_flags) ? 8 :
have_neon(cpu_flags) ? 2 : 1;
I can't tell if it would open room for improvement, but might be something to
experiment with eventually.
Thanks for your work, sorry for the delay, and happy new year.
