[Webkit-unassigned] [Bug 172306] B3::Value::effects() says that having a fence range implies the fence bit, but on x86_64 we lower loadAcq/storeRel to load/store so the store-before-load fence bit orderings won't be honored

--- Comment #2 from Filip Pizlo <fpizlo at apple.com> ---
Seems like MacroAssembler even having methods like loadAcq and storeRel is super confusing.

B3::LowerToAir should be making a deliberate choice about what acq/rel mean for x86, and I think that the only right interpretation is that rel means xchg.
