Summary: G1 now uses two reference processors - one is used by concurrent marking and the other is used by STW GCs (both full and incremental evacuation pauses). In an evacuation pause, the reference processor is embedded into the closures used to scan objects. Doing so causes causes reference objects to be 'discovered' by the reference processor. At the end of the evacuation pause, these discovered reference objects are processed - preserving (and copying) referent objects (and their reachable graphs) as appropriate.

Summary: As a result of the changes for 7080389, an evacuation failure during an initial mark pause may result in some root objects not being marked. Pass whether the caller is a root scanning closure into the evacuation failure handling code so that the thread that successfully forwards an object to itself also marks the object.

Summary: Refactor code marking code in the evacuation pause copy closures so that an evacuated object is only marked by the thread that successfully copies it.
