(1) For more clarity, I would suggest

  lock xadd  dword [edi], ebx

(even though "ebx" already specifies the width, yes)

Applies to the X64 version too.

(2) This change belongs in a separate patch. The X64 version already has
this comment, and making both versions makes sense. But touching
anything "stack-related" in the current patch is very confusing to me.

Thanks
