I'm not sure why we cannot do this. But seems that RISCV is the same.

Do you mind switching to a simpler program:

define zeroext i8 @test_zext_i8(ptr %p) nounwind {
  %a = load i8, ptr %p, align 1
  br label %exit
exit:
  ret i8 %a
}

There is no register width in LoongArch's instruction encoding, and the results of most 32-bit (W) instructions are sign-extended to 64-bit registers. Zero-extended values have additional overhead as input to the W instruction.
