// Note on the check_mt_safety() methods below:
//
// Verification of the "master" heap region sets / lists that are
// maintained by G1CollectedHeap is always done during a STW pause and
// by the VM thread at the start / end of the pause. The standard
// verification methods all assert check_mt_safety(). This is
// important as it ensures that verification is done without
// concurrent updates taking place at the same time. It follows, that,
// for the "master" heap region sets / lists, the check_mt_safety()
// method should include the VM thread / STW case.
