Summary: Replaces calls to os::javaTimeMillis(), which does not (and cannot) guarantee monotonicity, in GC code to an equivalent expression that uses os::javaTimeNanos(). os::javaTimeNanos is guaranteed monotonically non-decreasing if the underlying platform provides a monotonic time source. Changes in OS files are to make use of the newly defined constants in globalDefinitions.hpp.
