[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] gallium/docs: document behavior of set_sample_mask()

[Brian Paul]

The sample mask is used even if msaa is not explicity enabled when we
have a framebuffer with multisampled surfaces.  That's DX behavior and
what the Radeon drivers do.  Not sure about other drivers at this point.
