Thanks for the review!

If adding proper comments to all the math is a too-hard requirement,
then, in v2, I'd suggest to (temporarily?) squash patches 1 and 2 for
easier review, and to remove all unused functions and parameters.

So to answer to these more general thoughts:

  - Yes, I think removing dead code makes sense. I was thinking that
maybe it makes sense to have it in case we wanted to implement more
filters later, but perhaps we should take that problem when it happens.

  - Adding comments and references is going to be difficult as I'm not
an DSP expert.

  - As for squashing patches, I think it's important that patch 1/6
remains the way it is for tracking/Copyright purposes (i e who wrote
what code). I can commit to that in v2, I'll make three patches - the
two first ones and a third to remove dead code - and also post the
combined diff of these three for easier reviewing.

Well, I think that, after removal of dead code (which reduces the amount of work), copyrights can be made a non-issue. After all, you can always reimplement the coefficient calculation from scratch according to this cookbook:

Then compare the result of your own implementation with those from the webkit-copyrighted one, and, if they match, remove the webkit-copyrighted one.
