host and device results mismatch in nbody #21197

Description

@zjin-lcf

I find that the device and host results from the nbody programs in SYCL and OpenMP (icpx) do not match when the error bound is 1e-3. The program is https://github.com/zjin-lcf/HeCBench/tree/master/src/nbody-sycl.

The results match for the CUDA, HIP and OpenMP programs (nvc++ and amdclang++).

The issue can be reproduced on Intel and other vendors' GPUs.

On an Intel GPU

nbody-omp$ make run

icpx  -std=c++17 -Wall -I../nbody-cuda -O3 -fiopenmp -fopenmp-targets=spir64 -D__STRICT_ANSI__ -c GSimulation.cpp -o GSimulation.o
icpx  -std=c++17 -Wall -I../nbody-cuda -O3 -fiopenmp -fopenmp-targets=spir64 -D__STRICT_ANSI__ main.o GSimulation.o -o main
