Looks good. 

One tiny nit:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
src/hotspot/share/gc/g1/g1HeapSizingPolicy.cpp
  74     log_trace(gc, ergo, heap)("Can not expand (heap already fully expanded) "

[pre-existing]
s/Can not/Cannot/  -- "Can not" looks weird here.
