* The function converts \c boost::memory_order values to the compiler-specific constants.
*
* NOTE: The intention is that the function is optimized away by the compiler, and the
* compiler-specific constants are passed to the intrinsics. Unfortunately, constexpr doesn't
* work in this case because the standard atomics interface require memory ordering
* constants to be passed as function arguments, at which point they stop being constexpr.
* However, it is crucial that the compiler sees constants and not runtime values,
* because otherwise it just ignores the ordering value and always uses seq_cst.
* This is the case with Intel C++ Compiler 14.0.3 (Composer XE 2013 SP1, update 3) and
* gcc 4.8.2. Intel Compiler issues a warning in this case:
*
* warning #32013: Invalid memory order specified. Defaulting to seq_cst memory order.
*
* while gcc acts silently.
*
* To mitigate the problem ALL functions, including the atomic<> members must be
* declared with BOOST_FORCEINLINE. In this case the compilers are able to see that
* all functions are called with constant orderings and call intrinstcts properly.
*
* Unfortunately, this still doesn't work in debug mode as the compiler doesn't
* propagate constants even when functions are marked with BOOST_FORCEINLINE. In this case
* all atomic operaions will be executed with seq_cst semantics.
