[Mesa-dev] [RFC] i965: Fix border color on Sandybridge and Ivybridge.

[Kenneth Graunke]

While reading through the simulator, I found some interesting code that
looks like it checks the sampler default color pointer against the bound
set in STATE_BASE_ADDRESS.  On failure, it appears to program it to a
bogus but in-bound value.

So I decided to try programming a legitimate bound, and lo and behold,
border color worked.  Unfortunately, it's not entirely reliable: piglit
tests (such as tex-border-1) will still fail if you run them in a loop.

+91 piglits (or thereabouts).

This patch causes serious regressions and should not be pushed as-is.

This appears to break GNOME Shell horribly, among other things.
I'm guessing I screwed up the bound somehow.

But it does fix texture borders on SNB/IVB.  Mostly.

Not a clue about ILK, sadly.
