Supports the `nestedGEP`pattern that appears when an alloca is first indexed as an array element and then shifted with a byte‑offset GEP: ```llvm %SortedFragments = alloca [10 x <2 x i32>], addrspace(5), align 8 %row = getelementptr [10 x <2 x i32>], ptr addrspace(5) %SortedFragments, i32 0, i32 %j %elt1 = getelementptr i8, ptr addrspace(5) %row, i32 4 %val = load i32, ptr addrspace(5) %elt1 ``` The pass folds the two levels of addressing into a single vector lane index and keeps the whole object in a VGPR: ```llvm %vec = freeze <20 x i32> poison ; alloca promote <20 x i32> %idx0 = mul i32 %j, 2 ; j * 2 %idx = add i32 %idx0, 1 ; j * 2 + 1 %val = extractelement <20 x i32> %vec, i32 %idx ``` This eliminates the scratch read.
