Subject: [PATCH v2 0/3] docs, parallelism: Rearrange how jobserver reservations are made

v2:
    - correct comments and commit logs (rasmus)
    - handle non-parallel mode more cleanly (rasmus)
    - reserve slots 8 at a time (rasmus)
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20191121000304.48829-1-keescook@chromium.org

Hi,

As Rasmus noted[1], there were some deficiencies in how the Make jobserver
vs sphinx parallelism logic was handled. This series attempts to address
all those problems by building a set of wrappers and fixing some of the
internal logic.

Thank you Rasmus for the suggestions (and the "jobhog" example)! :)
