LDFF1SB (scalar plus vector)

Gather load first-fault signed bytes to vector (vector index)

Gather load with first-faulting behavior of signed bytes to active elements of a vector register from memory addresses generated by a 64-bit scalar base plus vector index. The index values are optionally sign or zero-extended from 32 to 64 bits. Inactive elements will not cause a read from Device memory or signal faults, and are set to zero in the destination vector.

It has encodings from 3 classes: 32-bit unpacked unscaled offset , 32-bit unscaled offset and 64-bit unscaled offset
