Hi all,
Please review this backport for the introduction of the StoreLoad barrier into
G1's write barrier.
The patch from 8 does not apply cleanly to 7u60 since the MacroAssembler code
was broken out of assembler_*.[ch]pp into macroAssembler_*.[ch]pp.
When I manually edited the patch file to apply the change to the assembler*-
files the patch applies with a line offset so the code has not been changed,
just moved.
(this fix depends on JDK-8029335, however that change backports cleanly so as
per the process no extra code review is required for the backport.)
