No need to specify default behaviour. The original change introducing nasm:
7be093ea4d
mentions requiring 2.0.9, which was the first release to default to this behaviour:
http://www.nasm.us/doc/nasmdoc2.html
"The -Ox mode is recommended for most uses, and is the default since NASM 2.09."

nasm does not accept x64
yasm has accepted (and appears to prefer) win64 at least as far back as
1.0.0:

Set num_inter_modes based on ref_mode_set_svc, which is
smaller set than ref_mode_set (which may use alt-ref).
No change in behavior.

Avoids duplicate computation of UV predictor.
Bit-exact when static_threshold is zero.
Small/neutral difference on RTC set with nonzero static_threshold
(since UV predictor won't be skipped with this change).
Small speed gain, ~1-2%, at speed 8.

this is only meant for testing. along with --enable-experimental
--enable-spatial-svc require VPX_TEST_SPATIAL_SVC to be defined rather
than bumping the encoder ABI.

For 1 pass cbr SVC: GOLDEN is the spatial reference,
better not to check for encoder_breakout on this reference.
Small positive ~0.075% (mostly neutral) gain in avgPSNR/SSIM metrics.
No observed change in encoder speed.

For the case when the number of temporal layers > 1,
the buffer levels (starting/optimal_buffer_level,
and maximum_buffer_size) were not scaled properly.
In vp9_update_layer_context_change_config():
when setting the layer-buffer levels, fix is to scale
the layer-target_bandwidth by the target_bandwidth
(which is the full stream bandwidth) instead of the
spatial_layer_target.
This is needed because prior to the call
vp9_update_layer_context_change_config(), set_rc_buffer_sizes()
is called which sets the buffer levels based on target bandwidth
(which is the full bandwidth for the SVC stream).
This fix properly sets the layer-buffer levels based on the
layer-bandwidth, and leads to better rate targeting.
Small/neutral change in avgPSNR/SSIM metrics on RTC set.

Control Flow Integrity [1] indirect call checking verifies that function
pointers only call valid functions with a matching type signature. This
change eliminates function pointer casts to make libvpx CFI-safe.

For reference frames: enable scale partition for
superblocks with low source sad or if bsize on lower-resoln
is at least 32x32.
Keep feature disabled for base temporal layer.
Small regression in avgPNSR/SSIM metrics, ~0.5-1%.
Speedup ~2-3% on mac for SVC (3 spatial/3 temporal layers) at speed 7.

When allow_partition_search_skip is set the two pass code
can optionally skip the partition search in the rd loop if the image
appears static (based on selection of 0,0 motion).
Unfortunately 0,0 motion does not necessarily mean that there are
no meaningful changes or that motion or intra modes will not be selected
in the second pass.
Disabling "allow_partition_search_skip" may hurt the encode speed a little
for a small number of clips but can have a big impact on compression.
The most notable example of this in our test sets is "bridge_close_cif"
where this change gives a gains of 18%, 12% and 16% in opsnr, ssim and
psnr-hvs.

Enable partition copy on boundary and scale blocks along the boundary.
Rename copy_partition_svc to scale_partition_svc.
Do not copy if the block crosses the boundary.

Removal of parameters to and code in calc_frame_boost() that is no
longer required.

The decay accumulator clause covers similar ground to the
new clause that tests the accumulated second reference error
so it has been removed to reduce complexity.
Change-Id: I4ec1cce32d72bd4ee463ad7def2831a68447d525
Add a clause to the breakout test for alt ref groups that
examines the size of the accumulated second reference
frame error compared to the cost of intra coding.
This clause causes a reduction in the average group length for many
clips. Alongside the change to the group length the minimum
boost is increased.
On balance the results are positive for psnr and psnr-hvs
but is negative for ssim/fast ssim for the smaller image formats.
Strong gains on some harder clips (eg ducks take off (midres) ~20%,
husky (lowres) 6-17%. Most of the negative cases are lower motion
clips. Subsequent patch hopefully will help with those.

Fix/cleaup the conditioning for usage of the reuse-lowres
partition feature.
Replace the non-reference condition with the top temporal
layer, and put this condition in the speed feature.
This prevents doing update_partition_svc() on every
VGA frame, instead it will now only do update for VGA in
the top temporal layer frames.
Also this makes it easier to test/enable this feature
for lower layer temporal frames.
