Cool. I've done a bit of performance analysis with this change and the
results aren't conclusive yet. Obviously, I'm going to pick the code
which goes faster for me :-)

I'm not too worried about frame buffer switching -- anything allocating
target surfaces larger than we can render to is probably doing something
wrong. I do see applications allocating large source images though, so
we should strive to make that reasonably fast.

Perhaps we should add an x11perf test case that draws from/to enormous
images and see how things look. I've only tested for correctness up to
this point.

If you can write something that looks cleaner, that'd be awesome. I'm
all for making the code as readable as possible.

Ah, ok. I was doing the easiest non-quad path I could come up with as I
really don't care about GLES :-)

I can't imagine that would be faster -- you'd have to wait for the copy
to complete before even starting the fallback, and presumably the
fallback won't be any faster this way...

Not just copy calls, we have to put a barrier before any operation using
the dest as source because *any* rendering occurring before the copy
would need to be correctly synchronized for this to work.
