Review comment:
Ok, thanks. So the only real limit here is that we can't request more than
48 kB of shared memory for this kernel, and the change from int to index_t
should not matter be problematic here: `256 * (8 + sizeof(DType)) * K <= 256 *
(8 + 8) * K = 4096 * K`. K is small (5), so it is nowhere near the limit.
