  commit 706b916960c898cfc24110f14fa4def84caaba93
  Author: Kenneth Graunke <kenneth@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
  Date:   Wed Mar 4 12:53:45 2015 -0800

      i965/skl: Break down SIMD16 3-source instructions when required.

  [Test case]
  Run something like Torcs on Skylake.

  [Regression potential]
  Slim, this only affects i965 driver for Intel, and the actual fix (706b916960c89) only affects gen9.
