 was the shader, NOT the hardware. ~24 t/s ≈ 25–30% of roofline (~80–150 t/s ideal) → headroom left.
 Patch: `patches/llama.cpp-0003-mali-warptile-iter1.patch` (adds VK_VENDOR_ID_ARM + is_mali warptile
 branch, L tuples only). Iteration 2: grow the tile toward the register ceiling for arithmetic reuse.

+Iteration 3: go smaller / maximize concurrent workgroups, not bigger.
