After a good amount of effort, I went ahead and provided a writeup on how compile mainline mesa with experimental compilers and standards at https://github.com/jjaxse2017/Mainline-Mesa-Expermental. I was hoping that there would be some interest with others doing so, to compare the results on other cards/drivers. I measured around a 18% improvement in performance against the stock Ubuntu 17.04 drivers with gcc 7 and llvm 6 combined with standard c++ 17 being a clear winner at optimization level 3. I went ahead and included a compiled version for AMD video cards, since that's what I own.
