Look harder :)
What I meant to say is that the patch I sent a couple of days ago
fixed a certain swizzle that didn't exist anymore:
else if (HAS_SWIZZLE(1,X) && HAS_SWIZZLE(2,Y))

If you look at util/u_format_table.c (autogenerated file), you will
see there isn't such as combination, when the number of channels is 4
(there are such combinations with less than 4 channels).

So existing 4-channel formats didn't get caught here, while this if
looked for a non-existing swizzle configuration.

I changed it to:
else if (HAS_SWIZZLE(1,Z) && HAS_SWIZZLE(2,W))
to capture those 4-channel formats that weren't caught

And in the patch i just sent, I removed the #ifdef
PIPE_ARCH_LITTLE_ENDIAN, so now this new check is also relevant for
x86.

Once you get additional formats recognized and supported, the number
of visuals increases. It was 360 before this patch, and 480 after it,
in x86.
