For some users of multi-lrc, e.g. split frame, it isn't safe to preempt
mid BB. To safely enable preemption at the BB boundary, a handshake
between to parent and child is needed. This is implemented via custom
emit_bb_start & emit_fini_breadcrumb functions and enabled via by
via by -> by
default if a context is configured by set parallel extension.
I tend to agree with Tvrtko that this should probably be an opt in
change. Is there a flags word passed in when creating the context?
Also, it's not just a change in pre-emption behaviour but a change in
synchronisation too, right? Previously, if you had a whole bunch of back
to back submissions then one child could run ahead of another and/or the
parent. After this change, there is a forced regroup at the end of each
batch. So while one could end sooner/later than the others, they can't
ever get an entire batch (or more) ahead or behind. Or was that
synchronisation already in there through other means anyway?

This is backwards compared to the parent?
Parent: wait on children then enable pre-emption
Child: enable pre-emption then signal parent
Makes for a window where the parent is waiting in atomic context for a
signal from a child that has been pre-empted and might not get to run
for some time?
