I have not investigated the result of doing this during code
generation. That should be possible, but it would be a bit more
effort.
All Gen6+ platforms had nearly identical results. (Skylake shown)
total cycles in shared programs:

370961367 (<.01%)
cycles in affected programs: 5174 -> 5033 (-2.73%)

Iron Lake and GM45 had similar results. (Iron Lake shown)
total instructions in shared programs:

This change has almost no effect right now. However, removing this
patch (but leaving the patch "intel/fs: Generate if instructions with
inverted conditions") after adding a patch that removes !(a < b) -> (a
>= b) optimizations (like
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/264787/) has the following
results on Skylake:
