Node queue has such semantics:
- All flags modifications are atomic.
- Reader count can be incremented only if there is no writer or pending flags.
  As soon as this can't be done with single operation, it is implemented with
  spin loop and atomic_cmpset().
- Writer flag can be set only if there is no any bits set.
  It is implemented with atomic_cmpset().
- Pending flag can be set any time, but to avoid collision on queue processing
  all queue fields are protected by the mutex.
- Queue processing thread reads queue holding the mutex, but releases it while
  processing. When queue is empty pending flag is removed.
