> Shenandoah evacuates object and then updates the reference in load barriers. Currently, memory order release is adopted in atomic_update_oop(), and we propose to use relaxed instead. Since memory order conservative is adopted in updating forwardee, this membar ensures that object copy is finished before updating the reference. In the scenario when a thread reads self-healed address from forwardee, relaxed is also fine due to the data dependency of the self-healed address.
