/**
* Provides safe handling of out-of-memory situations during evacuation.
*
* When a Java thread encounters out-of-memory while evacuating an object in a
* load-reference-barrier (i.e. it cannot copy the object to to-space), it does not
* necessarily follow we can return immediately from the LRB (and store to from-space).
*
* In very basic case, on such failure we may wait until the the evacuation is over,
* and then resolve the forwarded copy, and to the store there. This is possible
* because other threads might still have space in their GCLABs, and successfully
* evacuate the object.
*
* But, there is a race due to non-atomic evac_in_progress transition. Consider
* thread A is stuck waiting for the evacuation to be over -- it cannot leave with
* from-space copy yet. Control thread drops evacuation_in_progress preparing for
* next STW phase that has to recover from OOME. Thread B misses that update, and
* successfully evacuates the object, does the write to to-copy. But, before
* Thread B is able to install the fwdptr, thread A discovers evac_in_progress is
* down, exits from here, reads the fwdptr, discovers old from-copy, and stores there.
* Thread B then wakes up and installs to-copy. This breaks to-space invariant, and
* silently corrupts the heap: we accepted two writes to separate copies of the object.
*
* The way it is solved here is to maintain a counter of threads inside the
* 'evacuation path'. The 'evacuation path' is the part of evacuation that does the actual
* allocation, copying and CASing of the copy object, and is protected by this
* OOM-during-evac-handler. The handler allows multiple threads to enter and exit
* evacuation path, but on OOME it requires all threads that experienced OOME to wait
* for current threads to leave, and blocks other threads from entering.
*
* Detailed state change:
*
* Upon entry of the evac-path, entering thread will attempt to increase the counter,
* using a CAS. Depending on the result of the CAS:
* - success: carry on with evac
* - failure:
* - if offending value is a valid counter, then try again
* - if offending value is OOM-during-evac special value: loop until
* counter drops to 0, then exit with resolving the ptr
*
* Upon exit, exiting thread will decrease the counter using atomic dec.
*
* Upon OOM-during-evac, any thread will attempt to CAS OOM-during-evac
* special value into the counter. Depending on result:
* - success: busy-loop until counter drops to zero, then exit with resolve
* - failure:
* - offender is valid counter update: try again
* - offender is OOM-during-evac: busy loop until counter drops to
* zero, then exit with resolve
