+ *
+ * \ingroup coefficient_coding
+ *
+ * This function will write the quantized coefficients in a transform block into
+ * a bitstream using entropy coding.
+ *
+ * The coding steps are as follows.
+ *
+ * 1) Code the end of block position "eob", which is the scan index of the
+ * last non-zero coefficient plus one.
+ *
+ * 2) Code the lower magnitude level (<= COEFF_BASE_RANGE + NUM_BASE_LEVELS)
+ * for each coefficient in reversed scan order.
+ *
+ * 3) Code the sign and higher magnitude level
+ * (> COEFF_BASE_RANGE + NUM_BASE_LEVELS) in forward scan order.
+ *
+ * \param[in]    cm             Top-level structure shared by encoder and
+ * decoder
+ * \param[in]    x              Pointer to structure holding the data for the
+                                current encoding macroblock
+ * \param[in]    w              Entropy coding write pointer
+ * \param[in]    blk_row      The row index of the current transform block
+ * in the macroblock. Each unit has 4 pixels in y plane
+ * \param[in]    blk_col      The col index of the current transform block
+ * in the macroblock. Each unit has 4 pixels in y plane
+ * \param[in]    plane          The index of the current plane
+ * \param[in]    block          The index of the current transform block in the
+ * macroblock. It's defined by number of 4x4 units that has been coded before
+ * the currernt transform block.
+ * \param[in]    tx_size        The given transform size
