It is weird to me that the following load (across the padding) gets folded into 0.
```
@i40_struct = constant { i40, i8 } { i40 0, i8 1 }
define i16 @load_i40_struct_padding() {
%v = load i16, ptr getelementptr (i8, ptr @i40_struct, i64 4) ; [4, 6)
ret i16 %v
}
```
I think it is ok to always return zero, as the padding is initialized with undef.
