[Mesa-dev] Testing patches 9987 and 9988

[⚛]

Results for Bioshock Infinite on R9 390:

                     TIME    AVG   MIN   MAX
2016-05-25.15-51-53: 139.06, 9.81, 1.72, 58.78
2016-06-14.01-13-33: 100.91, 16.12, 3.06, 60.06
2016-07-07.16-44-55: 95.88, 18.45, 3.74, 68.32
2016-07-20.11-55-04: 85.97, 27.20, 4.54, 68.63 (git-0b626d7)
2016-07-20.12-17-38: 84.93, 27.72, 4.54, 71.60 (git-3c78d89)

This roughly shows how performance improved over time.

Mesa git-0b626d7 is just before http://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/9987

Mesa git-3c78d89 is after 9987 has been merged.

The biggest performance change happened between 2016-07-07 and
2016-07-20, but I do not have enough data to tell exactly when.

st_validate_state() is definitely affecting performance in games as
measured by "perf stat", so I am looking forward to your rewrite.
