[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 08/15] cpu: atomically modify cpu->exit_request

[Alex Bennée]

ThreadSanitizer picks up potential races although we already use
barriers to ensure things are in the correct order when processing exit
requests. For true C11 defined behaviour across threads we need to use
relaxed atomic_set/atomic_read semantics to reassure tsan.
