After
1711bf6cf2d ("intel/fs: Generate better code for fsign multiplied by a value"),
the conflicts resolution for setting the rounding mode after the
fused fmul and fsign optimization is non obvious.

Basically, the optimization doesn't really result in a MUL, or any
other operation which would need to have the rounding mode set. Hence,
we set it just before the actual MUL in the treatment of fmul.

Fixes: ba1e25e1aa6 ("i965/fs: set rounding mode when emitting fadd, fmul and ffma instructions")
