> Please review this change that removes the function oopDesc::mark_addr().
> It's kind of a suspicious function, since it is casting away the volatile for
> a location that has concurrent reads and writes. But there isn't any code that
> examines the value at the obtained address. Instead, it's just used as the
> base address for a few prefetches. We change those places accordingly, and
> remove the now unused mark_addr function.
>
> Testing: mach5 tier1
