If I recall correctly, the only actual changes between the Gen6 and Gen7 
render assembly was converting MRFs to GRFs, and I arbitrarily picked 
something in the 60s rather than 112+.  If you want, I think you could 
actually just delete all the Gen7 custom assembly and let 
gen7_convert_mrf_to_grf do it for you.

But this looks okay to me, if you'd rather continue doing everything 
explicitly...
