Summary: It turns out that there is no need to explicitly stop CMS since the JVM is taken down at a terminal safepoint during which CMS threads are (terminally) inactive. This  will need to be revised if and when we evolve in the future to a point where we allow JVM reincarnation in the same process, but those changes will be much more sweeping than just terminating CMS threads. The unused ::stop() methods will be removed in a separate CR. Also include in this CR is the fix for a small typo in the spelling of UseGCLogFileRotation in a message in arguments.cpp, brought to our attention by Rainer Jung and reviewed by minqi.

7000125: CMS: Anti-monotone young gen sizing with respect to maximum whole heap size specification
7027529: CMS: retire CMSUseOldDefaults flag
Summary: Simplify CMS heap sizing code, relying on ergonomic initial sizing consistent with other collectors for the most part, controlling only young gen sizing to rein in pause times. Make CMS young gen sizing default statically cpu-dependant. Remove inconsistencies wrt generation sizing and policy code, allowing for the fixing for 6627787 and 7000125. For 7027529, retire the flag CMSUseOldDefaults which had been introduced as a bridge from JDK 5 to JDK 6 a number of years ago.

Summary: Bulk zeroing reduction didn't work with G1, because arraycopy would call pre-barriers on uninitialized oops. The solution is to have version of arraycopy stubs that don't have pre-barriers. Also refactored arraycopy stubs generation on SPARC to be more readable and reduced the number of stubs necessary in some cases.
