Since you're just going to put bool_value in bool_src and const_value
below, why not just have bool_value be a nir_const_value and do
evaluate_if_condition(nif, b->cursor, &bool_value.u32[0]) and be done with
it?

This had better be 32 or we're toast because we're assuming a uint32_t the
whole time.  Maybe make this an assert instead?

We assume 32 here, for instance.

With the above two clean-ups,
