[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] i965: Drop perf_debug about rasterizer discard in SOL vs. clipper.

[Kenneth Graunke]

I recently experimented with performing rasterizer discard in the SOL
unit instead of the clipper, and as far as I can tell, it's basically
the same performance.  The clipper comes directly after SOL anyway,
and setting the clipper to REJECT_ALL should be pretty darn cheap.

Keep the perf_debug on Sandybridge, where the GS actually does work.
