[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 1/2] i965/fs: Don't use backend_visitor::instructions after creating the CFG.

This is a fix for a regression introduced in commit a9f8296d ("i965/fs:
Preserve the CFG in a few more places.").

The errata this code works around is described in a comment before the function:

   "[DevBW, DevCL] Errata: A destination register from a send can not be
    used as a destination register until after it has been sourced by an
    instruction with a different destination register.

The framebuffer write's sources must be in message registers, which SEND
instructions cannot have as a destination. There's no way for this
errata to affect anything at the end of the program. Just remove the
code.
