> The load-acquire of list->len on pop function is redundant.
> Only the CAS success needs to be load-acquire.
> It synchronizes with the store release in push, to ensure that the
> updated head is visible when the new length is visible.
> Without this, one thread in pop could see the increased length but the
> old list, which doesn't have enough items yet for pop to succeed.
