operation as a write barrier. That description has never been correct,
and it has caused confusion. An acquire operation orders writes as well
as reads, and a release operation orders reads as well as writes.
Also, explicitly say that a thread doesn't see its own accesses being
reordered. The reordering of a thread's accesses is only (potentially)
visible to another thread. Thus, memory barriers need only be used to
control the ordering of accesses between threads, not within a thread.
