this implementation has been already patched 6 times (not including this one) since it was originally introduced in Dec 12, including compilation and logic fixes as can be seen by : 24a673eb377069509e8dad5ff7fa146e363df739 eb9270cee7061e5a985eb9eac559270292b1d7ec a5e8e8a4f7ddb211d856eb30e93e70af9d51b735 d5855a0ec163afd591f272e13e1f2c366794306f 9bfdd08f0a65e67d0842ca35516669bec523fbe0 91051a4955255317cab0d09d8849ec12db85f924 it was meant to fix some sort of bug on i386 because it wasn't atomic but with so many changes I am not sure if what it was meant to do has been really preserved, so I think it would be better if anyone with more experience and a better understanding of this patch could sheed some light on this.
