The LNC array is sized before the start of a scavenge, while the heap may expand during a scavenge. With CMS, the last block of an arbitrary suffice of the LNC array may expand due to coalition with the expansion delta. We now take care not to attempt access past the end of the LNC array. LNC array code will be cleaned up and suitably encapsulated as part of the forthcoming performance RFE 7043675.

Fixed process_chunk_boundaries(), used for parallel card scanning when using ParNew/CMS, so as to prevent double-scanning, or worse, non-scanning of imprecisely marked objects exceeding parallel chunk size. Made some sizing parameters for parallel card scanning diagnostic, disabled ParallelGCRetainPLAB, and elaborated and clarified some comments.

Removed the unused clear argument to various cardtbale methods and unused mod_oop_in_space_iterate method. Unrelated to synopsis, added a pair of clarifying parens in AllocationStats constructor.

Use _max_num_q = max(discovery_degree, processing_degree), and let balance_queues() redistribute from discovery_degree to processing_degree of queues. This should also allow a more dynamic and flexible parallelism policy in the future.

Age bits need not enter the mark-word preservation calculus; also affected, in addition to CMS, per CR synopsis above, were ParNew (but not DefNew), ParallelScavenge and G1, albeit to a lesser degree than CMS.

Added an ifndef DONT_USE_PRECOMPILED_HEADER to precompiled.hpp. Set up DONT_USE_PRECOMPILED_HEADER when compiling with Sun Studio or when the user specifies USE_PRECOMPILED_HEADER=0. Fixed broken include dependencies.

Deprecated HandlePromotionFailure, removing the ability to turn off that feature, did away with one epoch look-ahead when deciding if a scavenge is likely to fail, relying on current data.

Autonomic per-worker free block cache sizing, tunable coalition policies, fixes to per-size block statistics, retuned gain and bandwidth of some feedback loop filters to allow quicker reactivity to abrupt changes in ambient demand, and other heuristics to reduce fragmentation of the CMS old gen. Also tightened some assertions, including those related to locking.

When using compressed oops, rather than chaining the overflowed grey objects' pre-images through their klass words, we use GC-worker thread-local overflow stacks.

Avoid overflow list walk in CMS & ParNew when it is unnecessary. Fix a couple of correctness issues, including a C-heap leak, in ParNew at the intersection of promotion failure, work queue overflow and object array chunking. Add stress testing option and related assertion checking.
