[Mesa-dev] [PATCH v2 35/53] intel/compiler: workaround for SIMD8 half-float MAD in gen < 9

Broadwell hardware has a bug that manifests in SIMD8 executions of
16-bit MAD instructions when any of the sources is a Y or W component.
We pack these components in the same SIMD register as components X and
Z respectively, but starting at offset 16B (so they live in the second
half of the register). The problem does not exist in SKL or later.

We work around this issue by moving any such sources to a temporary
starting at offset 0B. We want to do this after the main optimization loop
to prevent copy-propagation and friends to undo the fix.
