First off, I think the following is better done as a fix-up patch if we do
it at all :-)

If we make this

if ((int)i == thread_local_id_index) {
   assert(stage == MESA_SHADER_COMPUTE)
   ((brw_cs_prog_data *)stage_prog_data)->thread_local_id_index =
push_constant_loc[i];
   continue;
}

at the top of the loop then may be able to avoid having a "param" entry for
the local id.  This would mean we could get rid of the extra code where we
set up param and nr_param.  Just a thought.
