    Hi All,<br>
    <br>
    Could I have some reviews for the backport of the following two
    fixes from jdk8 to 7u:<br>
    <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-6412968">6412968 </a>:
    CMS: Long initial mark pauses <br>
    <a href="https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-6990419">6990419</a>:
    CMS: Remaining work for 6572569: consistently skewed work
    distribution in (long) re-mark pauses <br>
    <br>
    These changes parallelize the initial-mark phase of the CMS
    collector and improve the work distribution among parallel worker
    threads.<br>
    Webrev:
