RFR(XS): 8138607: gc/g1/mixedgc/TestLogging.java - G1 Evacuation Pause missing from output

[Kirill Zhaldybin]

Jon,

Thank you for reviewing the fix!

The test is designed to  create a situation when Mixed GC should happen 
for sure. The fact of Mixed GC is checked by gc log analysis. The test 
failed previously because under some circumstances an unexpected Full GC 
occurred.

The test starts CMC by itself (WB.g1StartConcMarkCycle();)
So, to be more deterministic IHOP is set to 100 to avoid CMC initiated 
by GC, not by the test.

Regards, Kirill
