The docs are fairly incomplete and inconsistent about it, but this
seems to be the reason why half-float destinations are required to be
DWORD-aligned on BDW+ projects. This way the regioning lowering pass
will make sure that the destination components of W to HF and HF to W
conversions are aligned like the corresponding conversion operation
with 32-bit execution data type.
