7114095: G1: assert(obj == oopDesc::load_decode_heap_oop(p)) failed: p should still be pointing to obj
Summary: As a result of  the changes for 4965777, the G1 reference field scanning closure could be applied to the discovered field of a reference object twice. The failing assert is too strong if the result of the first application of the closure is stolen, and the referenced object, evacuated by another worker thread.

Summary: GCNotifier::pushNotification() references GCMemoryManager::_last_gc_stat but is called from GCMemoryManager::gc_end() before GCMemoryManager::_last_gc_stat is set up using the values in GCMemoryManager::_current_gc_stat. As a result the GC notification code accesses unitialized or stale data. Move the notification call after GCMemoryManager::_las_gc_stat is set, but inside the same if-block.
