[Mesa-dev] [PATCH] nv50/ir: fix DCE to not generate 96-bit loads

A situation where there's a 128-bit load where the last component gets
DCE'd causes a 96-bit load to be generated, which no GPU can actually
emit. Avoid generating such instructions by scaling back to 64-bit on
the first load when splitting.

+// Each load can go into up to 4 destinations, any of which might potentially
