+/**
+ * Split large virtual GRFs into separate components if we can.
+ *
+ * This is mostly duplicated with what brw_fs_vector_splitting does,
+ * but that's really conservative because it's afraid of doing
+ * splitting that doesn't result in real progress after the rest of
+ * the optimization phases, which would cause infinite looping in
+ * optimization.  We can do it once here, safely.  This also has the
+ * opportunity to split interpolated values, or maybe even uniforms,
+ * which we don't have at the IR level.
+ *
+ * We want to split, because virtual GRFs are what we register
+ * allocate and spill (due to contiguousness requirements for some
+ * instructions), and they're what we naturally generate in the
+ * codegen process, but most virtual GRFs don't actually need to be
+ * contiguous sets of GRFs.  If we split, we'll end up with reduced
+ * live intervals and better dead code elimination and coalescing.
