   looks good, some suggestions:

- G1ParScanThreadState::do_copy_to_survivor_space: the first assert is 
indented by an extra space.

- maybe the two asserts in G1ParScanThreadState::trim_queue_partially() 
/ G1ParScanThreadState::trim_queue could be moved to 
trim_queue_to_threshold(), checking that the overflow queue is empty, 
and the size is <= the passed threshold.

Thanks,
   Thomas
