0 is a valid address. Plus using an unprefixed global static inline is
frown upon. Also we cannot get here without allocating a scratch_obj, so
we can forgo the test completely (and then kill the
get_pipe_control_scratch_addr).

GFX_OP_3DPRIMITIVE emulates a function, why? I thought it was a
constant.

Please emulate the style we use else where for splitting this up into
client, opcode, subop, len etc.
