RFR (S) 8203356: VM Object Allocation Collector can infinite recurse

[JC Beyler]

Hi all,

Would anyone want to look at this change? It helps fix a minor bug if
someone provokes a VM allocation during a VM Allocation Event.

Webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~jcbeyler/8203356/webrev.00/
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8203356

Thanks!
Jc
