Not really, we have been focusing on the FS backend for now for the fp64
implementation and if we could make Broadwell work exclusively in scalar mode
that would mean that we would have it fully covered (the implementation of fp64
in the FS backend is mostly done). But the plan was to work on the vec4 backend
next anyway (we are going to need that in any case if we aim to support fp64 in
gen7 at some point) so this only means that claiming full fp64 support in
Broadwell will have to wait until we get the vec4 support in place.
