[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 2/6] nvc0: re-upload currently bound shaders after code eviction

This fixes a very old issue which happens when the code segment
size is full. A bunch of real applications like Tomb Raider,
F1 2015, Elemental, hit that issue because they use a ton of shaders.

In this case, all shaders are evicted (for freeing space) but all
currently bound shaders also need to be re-uploaded and SP_START_ID
have to be updated accordingly.
