Subject: nir: Make load_const SSA-only
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2c7da78805175f36879111306ac37c12d33bf65b;p=mesa.git

nir: Make load_const SSA-only

As it was, we weren't ever using load_const in a non-SSA way.  This allows
us to substantially simplify the load_const instruction.  If we ever need a
non-SSA constant load, we can do a load_const and an imov.
