[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] i965/gs: Fix EndPrimitive on Broadwell.

My earlier patch (i965: Reserve space for "Vertex Count" in GS outputs.)
incremented Global Offset for most URB writes to make room for the new
"Vertex Count" field, but failed to shift the URB writes used for
writing control bits.

Confusingly, Global Offset must be incremented by 2 here, rather than 1.
The URB writes we use for actual data are HWord writes, which treat
Global Offset as a 256-bit offset.  These are OWord writes, so it's
treated as a 128-bit offset instead.

I'm still seeing sporadic failures, but I don't know if that's related to
geometry shaders - I'm also getting sporadic stray vertices in a lot of
other things, too.  They pass most of the time.
