This change:
...
// BEGIN FUNCTION DEF: main$_omp_fn$0
.entry main$_omp_fn$0 (.param .u64 %in_ar0)
+ .maxntid 32, 32, 1
...
needs to be an individual patch.

'Help' is too strongly formulated, given that there's no clear link
between the semantics of the directive, and the observed effect.
Use "seems to have the effect" or some such formulation.
Also, list in the comment a JIT driver version, and sm_ version and a
testcase for which this is required.
Also, guard it with WORKAROUND_PTXJIT_BUG_3 (_2 is already taken in trunk.)
Thanks,
