Subject: Use load() instead of implicit cast when using QueuedConnection
X-Git-Tag: qt-v5.0.0-alpha1~3010
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=d2aaa13820e400de73e3b0a12af6b7b7c6393d32;p=profile%2Fivi%2Fqtbase.git

Use load() instead of implicit cast when using QueuedConnection

queued_activate() sets the argumentTypes atomic pointer on first use, which
mixes a load, memory initialization, test-and-set-ordered, and
another load. The explicit memory ordering is necessary to ensure
that the memory stores happen in program order.
