In [JDK-8329570](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8329570): 'G1: Excessive is_obj_dead_cond calls in verification' we moved the verification of the containing object so that it was done only once. We left the repeated null-check because of concerns that moving it would introduce the risk that someone in the future would miss calling `set_containing_obj` or calling it with a null object.
I propose that we restructure the code to make the closure's state const and remove the set_containing_obj function so that we can feel confident that we don't hit such a bug in the future.
The patch also combines the failures from verification of the oops with failures from checking the containing objects. I had a version that kept these two separate, but I don't see why we would want that. Tell me if you'd want me to reintroduce this separation.
