Demonstrator patch
Uses 4 threads to do checksum_die in parallel. Runs into trouble with
loc_htab/loclists_htab, so uses mutexes to guard accesses to those.
Passes testsuite with -fsanitize=threads.
Results on cc1: same memory usage, 20% more usertime, 8.7% less realtime.

Known problem: When marking inter-CU refs in read_exprloc, we need to ensure
that there's no other thread accessing that DIE. Should not be typical input
though.

Updated demonstrator patch
Now uses 8 threads, also does checksum_ref_die threaded.
Slightly better results: realtime now 14.7% less:

Additional known problem: Inter-CU references during checksum_ref_die. Again,
should be rare.

--- Comment #3 from Tom de Vries <vries at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
An interesting question is whether find_dups can be parallelized.
The common resource that is used, is the dup_htab. For an actual insertion, the
htab as a whole needs to be locked.
For comparing, comparing DIEs with different checksums can be done in parallel.
So, we could fold the ref_checksum to a byte, and use that as in index into an
array of 256 locks. The problem however is the optimistic marking of DIEs as
duplicates when following references. Marking those optimistically would also
require acquiring the lock for the corresponding checksum, which opens the door
to deadlock problems. We could mitigate for that by detecting cycles upfront,
and avoiding parallel processing of those, but that would again reduce
effectivity.

In order to assess effectiveness better, we need --devel-progress to emit
realtime, in addition to user and sys.
Then we can determine how much the reduction in realtime is of the .debug_info
reading phase, rather than of the overall realtime as reported by the time
command.
