* ggml : remove assert for AArch64 GEMV and GEMM Q4 kernels
* added fallback mechanism when the offline re-quantized model is not
optimized for the underlying target.
* fix for build errors
* remove prints from the low-level code
* Rebase to the latest upstream
a return before a barrier (that happens only in some threads in
a workgroup) leads to UB.
While the old code actually works on some devices,
it fails on some others (i.e. "smaller" GPUs).
BTW, I think it would be better to set specialization constants
when the graph is built, in that way the local workgroup
could be sized appropriately.
But it would take a lot of work.

* Remove possible leftover ffmpeg temp file from a previous failed conversion
* Revert "Remove possible leftover ffmpeg temp file from a previous failed conversion"
This reverts commit 00797403bd.
* Flag to force ffmpeg to overwrite output file if it exists
The script itself has a hashbang indicating that it is a shell script,
but the README indicates that it must be executed with `bash`.
I checked the script itself, and it seems to be valid POSIX shell. I can
confirm that it works with busybox sh.
Clarify the reference on the README, so it is clear that bash is not
actually a dependency for this script.
Make sure n_barrier and n_barrier_passed do not share the cache line to avoid cache line bouncing.
This optimization shows performance improvements even for n_threads <= 8 cases.
Resurect TSAN (Thread Sanitizer) check so that we can avoid doing expensive read-modify-write
in the normal case and just use thread-fence as originally intended.

* Remove zero vector parameter passing
* Rename functions and rearrange order of macros
* Edit commments

* threadpool: skip polling for unused threads
Currently all threads do N polling rounds even if only 1 thread is active (n_threads_cur == 1).
This commit adds a check to skip the polling for unused threads (ith >= n_threads_cur).
n_threads_cur is now an atomic_int to explicitly tell thread sanitizer that it is written
from one thread and read from other threads (not a race conditions).
* threadpool: further simplify and improve ggml_barrier
Avoid using strict memory order while polling, yet make sure that all threads go through
full memory barrier (memory fence) on ggml_barrier entrace and exit.
* threads: add simple barrier test
This test does lots of small, parallel matmul ops where the barriers in between dominate the overhead.
* threadpool: improve thread sync for new-graphs
Using the same tricks as ggml_barrier. All the polling is done with relaxed memory order
to keep it efficient, once the new graph is detected we do full fence using read-modify-write
with strict memory order.
* threadpool: improve abort handling
Do not use threadpool->ec (exit code) to decide whether to exit the compute loop.
threadpool->ec is not atomic which makes thread-sanitizer rightfully unhappy about it.
Instead introduce atomic threadpool->abort flag used for this. This is consistent with
how we handle threadpool->stop or pause.
While at it add an explicit atomic_load for n_threads_cur for consistency.
* test-barrier: release threadpool before releasing the context
fixes use-after-free detected by gcc thread-sanitizer on x86-64
for some reason llvm sanitizer is not detecting this issue.
