To me this is an implementation detail that could change. The barrier is there to prevent the intrinsic to be hoisted.

Thanks,
Ivan

Is it worthwhile to mention ordering effects? In particular, I believe there's a compiler barrier preventing moving ops before the call. Not sure if this needs any attention in the javadoc.

            Hence, a new revision of the webrev. Everything is the
            same, except now
            it is the Thread class.

        Make sure the commit comment reflects the new synopsis :)

        I thought at some point there was discussion of giving a usage
        example in the javadoc? I think most people would be quite
        puzzled after reading the technical spec alone.

        Thanks,

            Please, approve.
