http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~eistepan/6407976/webrev.00/src/share/vm/gc_implementation/g1/g1CollectedHeap.cpp.patch

  void G1CollectedHeap::reset_taskqueue_stats() {
-  const int n = workers()->total_workers();
-  for (int i = 0; i < n; ++i) {
+  const uint n = workers()->total_workers();
+  for (int i = 0; i < (int) n; ++i) {
      task_queue(i)->stats.reset();
    }
  }

Why do you have this (int) cast here? Didn't you change the task_queue 
function with:
-  RefToScanQueue *task_queue(int i) const;
+  RefToScanQueue *task_queue(uint i) const;

You should keep the parameter alignments:

-int AdaptiveSizePolicy::calc_active_workers(uintx total_workers,
+uint AdaptiveSizePolicy::calc_active_workers(uintx total_workers,
                                              uintx active_workers,
                                              uintx application_workers) {

-int AdaptiveSizePolicy::calc_active_conc_workers(uintx total_workers,
+uint AdaptiveSizePolicy::calc_active_conc_workers(uintx total_workers,
                                                   uintx active_workers,
                                                   uintx 
application_workers) {


This goes for the other files as well.

As Igor mentioned, it would be good to only use uint:

-int Abstract_VM_Version::_parallel_worker_threads = 0;
+unsigned int Abstract_VM_Version::_parallel_worker_threads = 0;
