Hi, please consider the following changes:
`Thread::SpinRelease()` uses an `OrderAccess::fence()` to prevent loads and stores from within the critical section to float down out of the section. A full fence is expensive and it is an overkill on most platforms. Instead, one can achieve the same effect with `Atomic::release_store()`.
Tested in tiers 1 - 3.
