[Mesa-stable] [PATCH v3 34/48] intel/fs: Rework zero-length URB write handling

Originally we tried to handle this case based on slots_valid.  However,
there are a number of ways that this can go wrong.  For one, we throw
away any trailing slots which either aren't written or are set to
VARYING_SLOT_PAD.  Second, even if PSIZ is a valid slot, we may not
actually write anything there.  Between the lot of these, it was
possible to end up in a case where we tried to do a regular URB write
but ended up with a length of 1 which is invalid.  This commit moves it
to the end and makes it based on a new boolean flag urb_written.
