Unless you've got an example of this causing actual issues, it should only go into 3.7. All platforms supported by Windows guarantee atomicity for aligned, pointer-sized reads and writes, but there appear to be memory fencing semantics in here too. I don't understand entirely why we need this code at all, so I'll let Victor or Serhiy comment.
