8036860: Pad and cache-align the BiasedMappedArray Summary: Pad and cache-align BiasedMappedArray instances by default to avoid performance variability problems due to false sharing, as instances of this data structures are typically used for performance sensitive code. Reviewed-by: brutisso, stefank

8035330: Remove G1ParScanPartialArrayClosure and G1ParScanHeapEvacClosure Summary: Mentioned closures are actually wrapped methods. This adds confusion to readers, and in this case also increases code size as G1ParScanHeapEvacClosure is part of the oop_oop_iterate() methods. Move them into G1ParScanThreadState as methods.

8035815: Cache-align and pad the from card cache Summary: The from card cache is a very frequently accessed data structure. It is essentially a 2d array of per-region values, one row of values for every GC thread. Pad and align the data structure to avoid false sharing. Reviewed-by: stefank

8035406: Improve data structure for Code Cache remembered sets Summary: Change the code cache remembered sets data structure from a GrowableArray to a chunked list of nmethods. This makes the data structure more amenable to parallelization, and decreases freeing time. Reviewed-by: mgerdin, brutisso
