Bug detailed description:
--------------------------------------------------
SynMark2_v6_0_0_OglDrvCtx performance reduce by 12% with gnome-session on BDW and BSW. The problem also exists on latest Master branch.
It's Mesa regression. By bisected, show that ee5fb8d1 is the first bad commit.
Its parents commit (7ff457b9) is good.

    i965: Generate vs code using scalar backend for BDW+

    With everything in place, we can now use the scalar backend compiler for
    vertex shaders on BDW+.  We make scalar vertex shaders the default on
    BDW+ but add a new vec4vs debug option to force the vec4 backend.

    No piglit regressions.

    Performance impact is minimal, I see a ~1.5 improvement on the T-Rex
    GLBenchmark case, but in general it's in the noise.  Some of our
    internal synthetic, vs bounded benchmarks show great improvement, 20%-40%
    in some cases, but real-world cases are mostly unaffected.
