Subject: i965/vs: Use write commits on scratch writes in pre-gen6.
X-Git-Url: https://git.libre-soc.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=9367960ea64a087895caaadbd0353080c14b4bab;p=mesa.git

i965/vs: Use write commits on scratch writes in pre-gen6.

This is required to ensure ordering between reads and writes within a
thread.
