Re: [PATCH RESEND] drm/vc4: Make sure to emit a tile coordinates between two MSAA loads.

This change deals with things that I'm not very familiar with, but here
is my take on what is happening here:

- When we have to do more than a single load in the same render command
list, we need to send out tile coordinates and a dummy store in between
the two, because of internal architecture requirements of the GPU;
- We're dealing with the color buffer first and then the z-stencil
buffer;
- As a result, we need to issue that dummy store in the block handling
the z-stencil, if there was a previous color load in the rcl;
- We previously only did that for non-MSAA z-stencil buffers (without
the FULL_RES flag);
- The same thing actually needs to be done for the MSAA case too, as
the reason why we need that dummy store also applies to MSAA loads.

If my understanding is correct, then consider this:

Otherwise, I'd be happy to know what I misunderstood in the process!

Cheers,
