Because the global ittglobal is initialized in a critical section (here), Clang Thread Sanitizer flags it as a race condition.
We stumbled upon it by calling itt_string_create in a parallel section.
It is not critical, but it forces users to suppress those warnings. Maybe separating the initialization from the lock, and statically initializing the mutex would avoid this issue.
