[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 3/6] i965/gen6-7: Implement stall and flushes required prior to switching pipelines.

Francisco Jerez currojerez at riseup.net

Switching the current pipeline while it's not completely idle or the
read and write caches aren't flushed can lead to corruption.  Fixes
misrendering of at least the following Khronos CTS test:

 ES31-CTS.shader_image_load_store.basic-allTargets-store-fs

The stall and flushes are no longer required on Gen8+.
