From: Ville Syrjälä <ville.syrjala@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> i915_gem_object_create_internal() does not hand out zeroed memory. Thus we may confuse whatever stale garbage is in there as a previous register write and mistakenly handle the first actual register write as an indexed write. This can end up corrupting the instruction sufficiently well to lose the entire register write. Make sure we've actually emitted a previous instruction before attemting indexed register write merging.
