i965/ir: Skip eliminate_find_live_channel() for stages with sparse thread dispatch.
The eliminate_find_live_channel optimization eliminates FIND_LIVE_CHANNEL instructions in cases where control flow is known to be uniform, and replaces them with 'MOV 0', which in turn unblocks subsequent elimination of the BROADCAST instruction frequently used on the result of FIND_LIVE_CHANNEL. This is however not correct in per-sample fragment shader dispatch because the PSD can dispatch a fully unlit sample under certain conditions. Disable the optimization in that case. Reviewed-by: Jason Ekstrand <[email protected]> v2: Add devinfo argument to brw_stage_has_packed_dispatch() to implement hardware generation check.
