I've checked that the change works fine on top of D126907 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D126907>. The bug is still there after D126907 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D126907> and gets fixed by this.
Also, the merge conflict is actually minimal, no code changes intersect.
================
Comment at: clang/lib/Sema/SemaConcept.cpp:352
+ [this](const Expr *AtomicExpr) -> ExprResult {
+ // We only do this to immitate lvalue-to-rvalue conversion.
+ return PerformContextuallyConvertToBool(const_cast<Expr*>(AtomicExpr));

Yeah, they have to be bool and we actually check for that in `CheckConstraintExpression`. The standard explicitly mentions only the lvalue-to-rvalue conversion should be performed.
```
[temp.constr.atomic]p3 If substitution results in an invalid type or expression, the constraint is
not satisfied. Otherwise, the lvalue-to-rvalue conversion (7.3.1) is performed if necessary, and E shall be a constant expression of type bool.
```
However, in the calls to `calculateConstraintSatisfaction` we do a more generic boolean conversion, but the comment in the other call site suggests this probably accidental and we actually want a less generic conversion:
```
// Substitution might have stripped off a contextual conversion to
// bool if this is the operand of an '&&' or '||'. For example, we
// might lose an lvalue-to-rvalue conversion here. If so, put it back
// before we try to evaluate.
if (!SubstitutedExpression.isInvalid())
SubstitutedExpression =
S.PerformContextuallyConvertToBool(SubstitutedExpression.get());
```
I am happy to take a look at fixing the mentioned bug.
================
Comment at: clang/lib/Sema/SemaTemplateInstantiate.cpp:2042
+ !SemaRef.CheckConstraintExpression(TransConstraint.get())) {
+ assert(Trap.hasErrorOccurred() && "CheckConstraintExpression failed, but "
+ "did not produce a SFINAE error");

Note that we do not call `BuildNestedRequirement` anymore and use placement new directly to avoid extra template instantiations. Instead we call `CheckConstraintExpression` directly to account for any errors.

The number of calls to these functions is actually the same.
`CheckConstraintExpression` used to be called during `CheckConstraintSatisfaction` (that does instantiations) for every atomic constraint after the substitution. It merely checks that each constraint have a bool type and does not do any substitutions, so it's pretty cheap anyway.
`CheckConstraintSatisfaction` was called inside `BuildNestedRequirement`, we now call a different overload here directly that does not do any extra template instantiations directly.
That way we end up doing the same checks without running recursive template instantiations.
