I only check the correctness, there is no problem
It seems mix using tab and space in the function __gen_ocl_internal_simple_exp and there some intend problem.

Subject: [Beignet] [PATCH] backend: refine exp function with float input

	remove some corner cases check for these path can not be
	reached.And refine branch code to select. These improvements
	get 20% performance. and the performance of  OCL_ExpFixture_Exp
        in opencv can match up to other Gen driver
