Summary: The verification code that checked whether no bitmap mark had been found re-read HeapRegion::end() after the check on the bitmap. Concurrent humongous object allocation could have changed HeapRegion::end() in the meantime. Fix this by using the actual end of the region instead of HeapRegion::end() for comparison.

Summary: Changes in JDK-8038423 always initialize (zero out) virtual memory used for auxiliary data structures. This causes a footprint regression for G1 in startup benchmarks. This is because they do not touch that memory at all, so the operating system does not actually commit these pages. The fix is to, if the initialization value of the data structures matches the default value of just committed memory (=0), do not do anything.
