Overflow undetected in ippsAdd_64f_A53 and related functions

[S__Mark]

Hello, the attached C++ program illustrates that overflow is
not correctly detected in IPP real vector arithmetic operations
involving addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.

The affected routines are:

vector-vector
ippsAdd_64f_A53
ippsSub_64f_A53
ippsMul_64f_A53
ippsDiv_64f_A53

vector-scalar
ippsAddC_64f
ippsSubC_64f
(and mul div variants)

scalar-vector
ippsSubCRev_64f

I have not tested the float versions ippsAdd_32f etc.
The complex versions ippsAdd_64fc etc appear to work fine.

The vector-scalar and scalar-vector routines signal an error
through fetestexcept so that can be used instead of IppStatus.
However the error in the vector-vector functions is not signalled.

Example output:

ippCore2018.0.3 (r58644)

Best wishes.

There is a similar problem in multiplication ippsMul_64f_A53
