📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe PR adds ChangesParallel local-index validation
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to The new validation can still allow certain invalid local-buffer accesses when their parallel-loop dependency is hidden behind an alias, potentially permitting undefined lowering behavior. The PR is not merge-ready until alias dependencies are checked. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

Track dependencies through flat Bind aliases.
An immutable expression assignment can emit Bind(idx, i + 0), followed by local[idx]. The index contains idx, while the binding value contains the T.Parallel variable i. The visitor does not track Bind dependencies, so it accepts the local access.
Track scoped, transitive Bind dependencies in tilelang/analysis/parallel_local_index_checker.py. Add a rejected local load or store with an index bound from a T.Parallel variable in testing/python/analysis/test_tilelang_parallel_local_index_checker.py.

Summary
Motivation
Local buffers are thread-private and do not participate in parallel layout inference. Indexing them with T.Parallel loop variables gives the loop a cross-thread ownership meaning that local storage cannot represent. Rejecting this pattern before backend lowering produces an actionable error instead of allowing undefined lowering behavior.
Tests
LLVM codegen was skipped because LLVM is not enabled in the local build. CDNA4 runtime validation requires a gfx950 environment.
