Here are my benchmarks on Raspberry Pi 3B+.

Before:
deemphasis_neon:                                      4121.8 ( 2.11x)
postfilter_15_neon:                                   9405.2 ( 2.46x)
postfilter_512_neon:                                  9457.0 ( 2.44x)
postfilter_1022_neon:                                 9398.0 ( 2.46x)

After:
deemphasis_neon:                                      4135.8 ( 2.10x)
postfilter_15_neon:                                   7967.2 ( 2.90x)
postfilter_512_neon:                                  7980.2 ( 2.89x)
postfilter_1022_neon:                                 7980.0 ( 2.89x)
