[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 7/9] util/u_draw: Skip rendering instead of aborting when excessive number of instances is found.

[jfonseca at vmware.com]

From: José Fonseca <jfonseca at vmware.com>

This is a temporary hack. I believe the only way of properly fixing this
is to check buffer overflow just before fetching based on addresses,
instead of number of vertices/instances. This change simply allows tests
that stress buffer overflows to complete without asserting, and should
not affect valid rendering.
