With the patch applied, GLB27_TRex_C24Z16_FixedTimeStep goes from
99fps to 109fps on my Haswell, and from 60fps to 65fps on my Ivy
Bridge.  No piglit regression on both GENs.

I had a non-recoverable system hang once with the patch applied.  I
was not sure if it is because of the patch or drm-intel-nightly (which
I checkout out some weeks ago).  I did my tests today against latest
drm-intel-next, and did not have any hang.  Since the optimization is
disabled by default, I am curious if there is any caveat before
enabling it.
