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.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

But now include a check for CPU_COUNT so we still build on 10 year old
versions of glibc.
Original message:
Use sched_getaffinity instead of std:🧵:hardware_concurrency.
The issue with std:🧵:hardware_concurrency is that it forwards
to libc and some implementations (like glibc) don't take thread
affinity into consideration.
With this change a llvm program that can execute in only 2 cores will
use 2 threads, even if the machine has 32 cores.
This makes benchmarking a lot easier, but should also help if someone
doesn't want to use all cores for compilation for example.

Summary:
This reverts D38481. The change breaks systems with older versions of glibc. It
injects a use of CPU_COUNT() from sched.h without checking to ensure that the
function exists first.

This time it actually occurred to me to change the #defines
to actually test the pre-processed out codepath. Hopefully
this time it works.
