I see. Maybe it's best to just forbid HLE_ACQUIRE + RELAXED 
and HLE_RELEASE + RELAXED, because they are very very likely to be wrong. 
Since this all implementation specific anyways could just forced them to 
HLE_ACQUIRE+ACQUIRE and HLE_RELEASE+RELEASE.

Essentially Kirill's patch did that except it missed the check
to only do it when RELAXED is in the lower bits.
