The principles of operation states reads are in order, writes are in
order, writes can be reordered after reads, but no reads can be
reordered after writes.
The atomic and bitops variantes for z196 use the interlocked-access
facility instructions with a memory barrier before and after the
instruction. Because of the memory ordering the first barrier is
unnecessary and can be removed.
