If running that with just 'RUNTESTFLAGS="i386-prefetch.exp"', I get:

..., which indeed complains about 'LTO_TORTURE_OPTIONS' (which relates to
my recent changes in that area, which I now do understand, see below).
The issue is that indeed 'torture-init' now does set
'LTO_TORTURE_OPTIONS', whereas 'torture_without_loops',
'torture_with_loops' are set only when 'set-torture-options' is called.

That is the crucial thing indeed. Vineet, please note that in the Git
commit log. That is, instead of "Multilib testing", say "Multilib
testing involving '-march=[...]' flags", or similar.
The ERRORs do reproduce with x86_64 GNU/Linux with:
RUNTESTFLAGS='--target_board=unix\{-m32,-m64,-march=generic,-march=generic\}
i386-prefetch.exp'
..., for example. Here, '-m32' behaves as expected, '-m64' behaves as
expected, the first '-march=generic' does the 'torture-init' and "early
exit", the second '-march=generic' then again does 'torture-init' and
runs into the error condition.

In the "old world", 'torture-init', *not* followed by
'set-torture-options', *not* followed by 'torture-finish', then another
'torture-init' was not a problem -- but in the "new world" it now is.
This also explains my confusion; the original report was:
ERROR: torture-init: torture_without_loops is not empty as expected
..., note: not 'LTO_TORTURE_OPTIONS' but 'torture_without_loops', and
those I'd not directly touched in my recent changes, which had made me
confused.
The 'torture_without_loops' error condition now does arise if there's a
'torture-init', *not* followed by 'set-torture-options', *not* followed
by 'torture-finish' (that is, 'i386-prefetch.exp'), then 'gcc-dg-runtest'
('riscv.exp', for example), which internally skips 'torture-init' (due to
'torture-init-done', due to 'LTO_TORTURE_OPTIONS'), but it does
'set-torture-options', then skips 'torture-finish', and then any next
'torture-init' detects the mismatch, thus ERRORs.
I can be convinced otherwise, but I still maintain my position that
requiring/checking proper bracketing of 'torture-init', 'torture-finish'
is advisable, and therefore propose to not re-do my 'LTO_TORTURE_OPTIONS'
changes, but indeed suggest to apply Vineet's patch, with a minor change,
see below. (I cannot formally approve it, however; testsuite maintainers
CCed.)
As for your proposed patch:
<https://inbox.sourceware.org/[email protected]>,
I suggest to move the "early exit" in front of all the setup code, that
is, right after license header:
