This means the pass has to walk all the instructions but it was doing
that in a bunch of cases anyway when it didn't have a HALT_TARGET.
However, removing HALT_TARGET frees up the scheduler a bit because
HALT_TARGET is considered a scheduling barrier. The shader-db results
are kind-of a wash but we're about to add HALT_TARGET unconditionally so
we want to be able to get rid of it.
