ysquare	unsigned int	Select order of the mini-permute square (default=0x3210). LSB apply to first element. Value per lane needs be less than 4. max value for this field is (0x3333)
cmp	unsigned int	32bit value where each bit is the results of the comparison lane by lane, referred to the output lanes

	)

Performs a maximum difference computation between lanes of xbuff.

for (int i = 0; i < 32; i++)
    idx = f( xstart, xoffsets[i],xsquare);
    idy = f( ystart, yoffsets[i],ysquare);
    o[i] = maxdiff(x[idx], x[idy])

xoffsets, xoffsets_hi, yoffsets, yoffsets_hi have 8 offset values each. 4 bits per offset.
For Example: for v16int32 output type, idx for output_lane_0 = f(xstart,xoffsets[0],xsquare)
For Example: for v16int32 output type, idx for output_lane_15 = f(xstart,xoffsets_hi[7],xsquare)
In case of v32int16, 1 offset is used for 2 adjacent lanes.
For more information on how the function f() selects data from the buffers refer to Lane selection note below.
    cmp[i-th bit] = ( x[idx] > x[idy] ? 1 : 0 );
