[Mesa-dev] [PATCH 2/3] nir: add conditional discard optimisation

I am not really that much familiar with nir, so I apologize if what I write
below is wrong.

What if we had something like:

a = 0;
if (x) {
  discard_if(y);
  a = 1;
}

Then if (x && !y), we must not discard and both at the same time set a to
1. Your transformation would probably change it to:

a = 0;
discard_if(x && y);

Which is incorrect.

I think you have to ensure (if the intrinsic is discard_if) that discard_if
is the only instruction inside the then block. Or just remove the intrinsic
from the then block and leave the rest of the if alone.

Regards,
Gustaw
