intel/compiler: Avoid propagating inequality cmods if types are different
v2: Fix silly bug in logic. s/||/&&/ All but one of the affected shaders is in an Unreal4 demo. The other is in Tomb Raider. All of the cases that Ian investigated appear to be sequences like the following if (int(uint(some_float)) < 0) /* other relations too */ ... At least in Tomb Raider, it's not obvious that this sequence came from the original shader. In some of the Unreal demos, the shader contains code like if (int(uint(textureLod(...))) > 0) ... which explicitly generates the offending sequence. All Gen6+ platforms had similar results (Skylake shown): total instructions in shared programs: 15437170 -> 15437187 (<.01%) instructions in affected programs: 4492 -> 4509 (0.38%) helped: 0 HURT: 17 HURT stats (abs) min: 1 max: 1 x̄: 1.00 x̃: 1 HURT stats (rel) min: 0.05% max: 0.73% x̄: 0.66% x̃: 0.73% 95% mean confidence interval for instructions value: 1.00 1.00 95% mean confidence interval for instructions %-change: 0.57% 0.75% Instructions are HURT. total cycles in shared programs: 383007996 -> 383007992 (<.01%) cycles in affected programs: 20542 -> 20538 (-0.02%) helped: 6 HURT: 7 helped stats (abs) min: 2 max: 6 x̄: 5.33 x̃: 6 helped stats (rel) min: 0.11% max: 0.36% x̄: 0.32% x̃: 0.36% HURT stats (abs) min: 4 max: 4 x̄: 4.00 x̃: 4 HURT stats (rel) min: 0.27% max: 0.27% x̄: 0.27% x̃: 0.27% 95% mean confidence interval for cycles value: -3.30 2.69 95% mean confidence interval for cycles %-change: -0.19% 0.19% Inconclusive result (value mean confidence interval includes 0).
