Parallel: only allow the first TaskGroup to run tasks parallelly
Summary: Concurrent (e.g. nested) llvm::parallel::for_each() may lead to dead locks. See PR35788 (fixed by rLLD322041) and PR41508 (fixed by D60757). When parallel_for_each() is about to return, in ~Latch() called by ~TaskGroup(), a thread (in the default executor) may block in Latch::sync() waiting for Count to become zero. If all threads in the default executor are blocked, it is a dead lock. To fix this, force serial execution if the current TaskGroup is not the first one. For a nested llvm::parallel::for_each(), this parallelizes the outermost loop and serializes inner loops. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D61115 llvm-svn: 359182
