// AtomicFlag is a boolean flag that can be set and tested atomically. It is
// intended to be used to fast-path checks where the common case would normally
// release the governing mutex immediately after checking.
//
// Example usage:
// void DoFoo(Bar* bar) {
//   AutoLock l(lock_);
//   queue_.push_back(bar);
//   flag_.Set(true);
// }
//
// void Baz() {
//   if (!flag_)  // Assume this is the common case.
//     return;
//
//   AutoLock l(lock_);
//   ... drain queue_ ...
//   flag_.Set(false);
// }
