Ian Romanick 85b0bb5144 intel/fs: Disable conditional discard optimization on Gen4 and Gen5
The CMP instruction on Gen4 and Gen5 generates one bit (the LSB) of
valid data and 31 bits of junk.  Results of comparisons that are used as
Boolean values need to have a fixup applied to generate the proper 0/~0
values.

Calling fs_visitor::nir_emit_alu with need_dest=false prevents the fixup
code from being generated.  This results in a sequence like:

        cmp.l.f0.0(16)  g8<1>F          g14<8,8,1>F     0x0F  /* 0F */
        ...
        cmp.l.f0.0(16)  g4<1>F          g6<8,8,1>F      0x0F  /* 0F */
(+f0.1) or.z.f0.1(16) null<1>UD g4<8,8,1>UD     g8<8,8,1>UD

instead of

        cmp.l.f0.0(16)  g8<1>F          g14<8,8,1>F     0x0F  /* 0F */
        ...
        cmp.l.f0.0(16)  g4<1>F          g6<8,8,1>F      0x0F  /* 0F */
        or(16) g4<1>UD g4<8,8,1>UD     g8<8,8,1>UD
(+f0.1) and.z.f0.1(16) null<1>UD g4<8,8,1>UD     1UD

I examined a couple of the shaders hurt by this change, and ALL of them
would have been affected by this bug. :(
