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?

What is this extra space for? All the extra storage is grabbed from
after the end of this structure, isn't it?

Would be better written as '[num_children]' instead of '...' to make it
clear it is a per child array.
Also, maybe create a struct for this to get rid of the magic '+1's and
'BYTES / sizeof' constructs in the functions below.

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?
