One problem is that it was always using __mm_blendv_ps emulation even if the
instruction was supported. The other that the emulation function was wrong.
Thanks a lot to Ray Molenkamp for tracking this one down.
While unlikely to have had any serious effects because of limited use, the
previous implementation was not actually atomic due to a data race and
incorrectly coded CAS loop. We also had duplicates of this code in a few
places, it's now been moved to a single location with all other atomic
operations.
It is defined to & for CPU side compilation, and defined to an empty for any GPU
platform. The idea here is to use this macro instead of #ifdef block with bunch
of duplicated lines just to make it so CPU code is efficient.
Eventually we might switch to references on CUDA as well, but that would require
some intensive testing.
* Remove some unnecessary SSE emulation defines.
* Use full precision float division so we can enable it.
* Add sqrt(), sqr(), fabs(), shuffle variations, mask().
* Optimize reduce_add(), select().

I need to use some macros defined in util_simd.h for float3/float4, to emulate
SSE4 instructions on SSE2. But due to issues with order of header includes this
was not possible, this does some refactoring to make it work.

Two main things here:
1. Replace all unsafe for #line directive characters into a single loop,
avoiding multiple iterations and multiple temporary strings created.
2. Don't merge token char by char but calculate start and end point and
then copy all substring at once.
This gives about 15% speedup of source processing time. At this point
(with all previous commits from today) we've shrinked down compiled
sources size from 108 MB down to ~5.5 MB and lowered processing time
from 4.5 sec down to 0.047 sec on my laptop running Linux (this was a
constant time which Blender will always spent first time loading kernel,
even if we've got compiled clbin).
Basically gather lines as-is during traversal, avoiding allocating
memory for all the lines in headers.
Brings additional performance improvement abut 20%.
The idea here is that it is possible to mark certain include statements
as "precompiled" which means all subsequent includes of that file will
be replaced with an empty string.
This is a way to deal with tricky include pattern happening in single
program OpenCL split kernel which was including bunch of headers about
10 times.
This brings preprocessing time from ~1sec to ~0.1sec on my laptop.
The idea is to re-use files which were already processed. Gives about 4x speedup
of processing time (~4.5sec vs 1.0sec) on my laptop for the whole OpenCL kernel.
For users it will mean lower delay before OpenCL rendering might start.
GCC seems to detect uninitialized into function calls now, but then isn't
always smart enough to see that it is actually initialized. Disabling this
warning entirely seems a bit too much, so initialize a bit more now.
