A comment would be nice:

/* Make sure that the mantissa is representable and the exponent
 * fits in 3 bits.
 */

if ((fu.u & 0x7ffff) || exponent >= 8)
    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ parens for sanity, please

Maybe a comment (your call):

      fu.u = vf << 24; /* Shift the sign bit (7) into place (31) */

I think you want

   fu.exponent = ((vf & 0x70) >> 4) + (127 - 3);

0xf0 includes bits 4, 5, 6, and 7...which is the sign bit.  Negative values would produce an incorrect answer (try the various examples on IVB PRM Vol 4 Part 3 Page 20).  With that fixed, the forumula works for all the examples.

With that fixed, this patch is:

Personally, I'd just throw these in brw_reg.h rather than adding a new header
for two prototypes, but it's your call.
