I recently experimented with performing rasterizer discard in the SOL
unit instead of the clipper, and as far as I can tell, it's basically
the same performance. The clipper comes directly after SOL anyway,
and setting the clipper to REJECT_ALL should be pretty darn cheap.
Keep the perf_debug on Sandybridge, where the GS actually does work.
