>> This is a general cleanup and improvement of LTO, as well as a quick fix to remove a workaround in the Makefiles that disabled LTO for g1ParScanThreadState.cpp due to the old poisoning mechanism causing trouble. The -Wno-attribute-warning change here can be removed once Kim's new poisoning solution is integrated.
