[PATCH] drm/amd/display: add -msse2 to prevent Clang from emitting libcalls to undefined SW FP routines

[Nick Desaulniers]

Suggestions:
1. revert patch
2. get me the disassembly from gcc of the translation unit in question.
3. land patch that adds clang guards or something different based on 2.

Revert first; ask questions later.
