I didn't try to find a better spot, since it sounds like we're going to
split up and clean up brw_fs.cpp a little better eventually. Today it
has all of the front end stuff for VS, FS and CS and other helpers, and
it would make sense to move those into separate files. Until we figure
out how to organize this, I don't want to put this in its own file if
it's just going to be moved around later. I don't see any other good C
file in libi965_compiler to stick it in either.
