jit issue when INTERPRETER=1

[amosyou]

Versions:

• CUDA 12.2
• Debian 11
• triton==3.1.0
• torch==2.1.2

I have a kernel where in one particular line I define a tensor of -inf. This is all in the body of a function decorated with triton.jit, so it's not clear to me why this triton.jit issue is raised.

@triton.jit
def _kernel_fwd(...):
    ...
    m_i = tl.zeros([BLOCK_M], dtype=tl.float32) - float("inf")                                                                                                                                                 
    ...
