Rewriting generic-mode kernel with a customized state machine. [OMP131]

This optimization remark indicates that a generic-mode kernel on the device was specialized for the given target region. When offloading in generic-mode, a state machine is required to schedule the work between the parallel worker threads. This optimization specializes the state machine in cases where there is a known number of parallel regions inside the kernel. A much simpler state machine can be used if it is known that there is no nested parallelism and the number of regions to schedule is a static amount.

Examples

This optimization should occur on any generic-mode kernel that has visibility on all parallel regions, but cannot be moved to SPMD-mode and has no nested parallelism.
