10-warp debug: MMA=warp4 TMA=warp5 idle=6-9 still gives cosine 0.29

Pipeline init uses __syncthreads (all 320 threads participate).
Pipeline groups match 6-warp exactly.
Only difference: threads_per_cta=320 vs 192.

Direct comparison: 6-warp output [15,-129,-77.5,65,59]
vs 10-warp output [-7.5,2.2,-22.7,7.3,12.0] for row 0.
Completely different values.

Something in CuTe DSL runtime uses blockDim.x or total CTA size
in a way that breaks computation when CTA size changes from 192 to 320.

The pipeline_init_wait calls agent_sync(ThreadBlock) = __syncthreads
which all 320 threads reach. NamedBarriers use specific thread counts.
TMA atoms are created from MMA thread layout, not CTA size.

Hypothesis: the PipelineTmaUmma or PipelineUmmaAsync internally
uses blockDim.x for barrier arithmetic, making the barriers expect
more participants than the actual working threads.
