Synopsis:
    #include <mmintrin.h>
    __m64 _m_paddsw(__m64 *m1, __m64 *m2);

Description:
    The signed 16-bit words of m2 are added to the respective signed 16-bit
    words of m1 and the result is stored in memory.  Saturation occurs when
    a result exceeds the range of a signed word.  In the case where a result
    is a word larger than 0x7fff (overflow), it is clamped to 0x7fff.  In
    the case where a result is a word smaller than 0x8000 (underflow), it is
    clamped to 0x8000.

Returns:
    The result of adding the packed signed words, with saturation, of two
    64-bit multimedia values is returned.

Example:
    #include <stdio.h>
    #include <mmintrin.h>

    #define AS_WORDS "%4.4x %4.4x %4.4x %4.4x"

    __m64   a;
    __m64   b = { 0x8aacceef02244668 };
    __m64   c = { 0x76543211fedcba98 };

    void main()
      {
        a = _m_paddsw( b, c );
        printf( "m1="AS_WORDS"\n"
                "m2="AS_WORDS"\n"
                "mm="AS_WORDS"\n",
            b._16[3], b._16[2], b._16[1], b._16[0],
            c._16[3], c._16[2], c._16[1], c._16[0],
            a._16[3], a._16[2], a._16[1], a._16[0] );
      }

    produces the following:

    m1=8aac ceef 0224 4668
    m2=7654 3211 fedc ba98
    mm=0100 0100 0100 0100
