Description

We shouldn't allow the same array to be mapped with two different sets of
indices for now. i.e.,

nomp_update(a, 0, 10, sizeof(double), NOMP_TO);
nomp_update(a, 2, 8, sizeof(double), NOMP_TO);

Research direction

Start by locating the nomp_update entry point and the device-array mapping logic. Trace how existing mappings are recorded, then verify that mapping the same array with different index sets is rejected, including the two ranges shown in the issue.
