[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] mesa: stop assigning unused storage for opaque types

[Timothy Arceri]

The storage was once used by get_sampler_uniform_value() but that
was fixed long ago to use the uniform storage assigned by the
linker.

By not assigning storage for images/samplers the constant buffer
for gallium drivers will be reduced which could result in small
perf improvements.
---

 This will need to be updated to create storage for bindless
 samplers/images.
