I added shader_group_vote/shader_ballot support to NIR when I enabled
those extensions for i965 recently, so no work to do there.


Well, you still need to hook up the NIR-to-LLVM bits, but my series for
implementing the Vulkan equivalent extension in radv does that, so once it
lands there should be no work to do - reviews for it appreciated!
