There appears to have been some confusion over
uint_mask
during the initial reviews of the subgroup tests. Add a comment to clarify the purpose of the mask.Use a 32-bit all-ones mask (
0xffffffff
) instead of a 64-bit all-ones mask to further clarify the intent, that is, don't delay discarding the upper 32 bits until the assignment but mask them out immediately.Fixes #1203
