I think you need +1? if min_push_constant_used ==
max_push_constant_used you still use 1 push constant. (The code in the
info pass adds range, but that does not include the size of the loaded
thing?)

Now that I think about it, the shader info pass does not take into
account the size of the variable at all right? What happens with a
vec4? The range does not include the object itself right?

This won't work, as we can reach here even if there are some accesses
which don't use inline push constants, e.g. some non 32-bit accesses.
