Since we don't run any loop opts anymore after CCP, the dead subgraph is not removed and the dead nodes are also not re-processed by `PhaseCCP::transform_once` to update their bottom types. As a result, two `LoadNodes` only used by a `ValueTypePtrNode` end up with types that are inconsistent with their bottom types and are re-enqueued for IGVN indefinitely by this code:
