Good finding. I like the clean and simple solution. At that point of
optimizing back conflicts I don't find a better way to don't mess with
grf127, although we are forbidding legal permutations when not SEND
instructions are in place. I've just putting the your code after the
constrains for reg0 and reg1.
I've also confirmed that that that I run a full shader-db without
crashes caused by this validation rule and the performance impact of the
patch doesn't seem to be too much taking into account that we are
avoiding generating instructions with undefined return values.
