/* CONCURRENCTY NOTES:
The atomic_exchange_rel synchronizes-with the atomic_exhange_acq in
pthread_spin_lock.
On hppa we must not use a plain `stw` to reset the guard lock. This
has to do with the kernel compare-and-swap helper that is used to
implement all of the atomic operations.
The kernel CAS helper uses its own internal locks and that means that
to create a true happens-before relationship between any two threads,
the second thread must observe the internal lock having a value of 0
(it must attempt to take the lock with ldcw). This creates the
ordering required for a second thread to observe the effects of the
RMW of the kernel CAS helper in any other thread.
Therefore if a variable is used in an atomic macro it must always be
manipulated with atomic macros in order for memory ordering rules to
be preserved. */
