On platforms without support for 64bit atomic operations where we also cannot rely on 64bit reads to have single copy atomicity, such atomics are implemented using a spinlock based fallback. That means it's not safe to even read such atomics from within a signal handler (since the signal handler might run when the spinlock already is held). To avoid this issue defer global barrier processing out of the signal handler. Instead of checking local / shared barrier generation to determine whether to set ProcSignalBarrierPending, introduce PROCSIGNAL_BARRIER and always set ProcSignalBarrierPending when receiving such a signal. Additionally avoid redundant work in ProcessProcSignalBarrier if ProcSignalBarrierPending is unnecessarily. Also do a small amount of other polishing.
