Release Notes
sched : reintroduce less synchronizations during split compute (#20793)
CUDA: Improve performance via less synchronizations between token (#17795)
Adds CPU-to-CUDA copy capability to ggml_backend_cuda_cpy_tensor_async()
Adds function to relax sync requirements between input copies on supported backends (CUDA for now)
Exchanges synchronous copy with async copy function.
Adds macro guards to allow compilation in non-CUDA builds
Reworked backend detection in ggml-backend.cpp to avoid linking conflicts
Relax requirement of checks in async CUDA copies from backend and buffer type to just buffer type, to avoid linking issues
Minor cleanup
Makes opt-in to relax use of explicit syncs more general. Backends like vulkan which require a synchronization between HtoD copies and graph execution could also adopt this change now.
Reintroduces stricter check for CPU->CUDA backend async copy via GGML_DEVICE_TYPE_CPU.
Corrects initialization of ggml_backend_sync_mode in ggml_backend_sched_split initialization
Simplifies synchronizations to adhere to

Adds single-GPU synchronizations to multi-GPU settings to fix hip backend pipeline parallel bugs.
Scheduler Hardening: Exclude hip/MUSA from copy_from_host CPU split -> GPU split optimization
Scheduler Hardening: Re-adding original additional synchronizations for non-async backends
Adds disclaimer to hip/musa exclusion of copy_from_host. Highlights that it is out of precaution, but that no perf-impact is visible, and that it can be revisited separately anytime.
