G1 STW phases and FGC column in jstat

Hi all,

I wonder that STW phases (Remark and Cleanup) at G1 are not counted in jstat FGC column.
For example, Initial Mark and Remark at CMS are counted as FGC.

For consistency, I think that G1 STW phases should be counted as FGC.
What do you think about it?

If it is accepted, I will file it to JBS and will upload webrev.
