Doesn't this patch break all the drivers currently implementing this extension?

If I read it correctly, it creates the new Const, and then turns off
the feature.

I haven't found any hardware that doesn't consume two locations, so I didn't
care to implement optional support for it back when I wrote this.
Adding optional
support and breaking all the gallium drivers doesn't seem like the
correct answer
at this time either.
