[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] i965/vs: Preserve the type when copy propagating into an instruction.

[Kenneth Graunke]

Consider the following code, which reinterprets a register as a
different type:

mov(8)          g6<1>F          g1.4<0,4,1>.xF
and(8)          g5<1>.xUD       g6<4,4,1>.xUD   0x7fffffffUD

Copy propagation would notice that we can replace the use of g6 with
g1.4 and eliminate the MOV.  Unfortunately, it failed to preserve the UD
type, incorrectly generating:

and(8)          g5<1>.xUD       g6<4,4,1>.xF    0x7fffffffUD

Found while debugging Ian's uncommitted ARB_vertex_program LOG opcode
test with my new Mesa IR -> Vec4 IR translator.

NOTE: This is a candidate for stable release branches.
