      Check of thread-shared field evades lock acquisition

      The data guarded by this critical section may be read while in an inconsistent state or modified by multiple racing threads. Checking the value of a thread-shared field outside of a locked region to determine if a locked operation involving that thread shared field has completed.

It sees that the condition is false. Control is switched to Thread2.

Note that this write can be reordered at runtime to occur before instructions that do not access this field within this locked region. After Thread2 leaves the critical section, control is switched back to Thread1.

Now the two threads have an inconsistent view of "_M_owns" and updates to fields correlated with "_M_owns" may be lost.
