> This change fixes an assert that GC isn't cancelled in the middle of a safepoint. The assert was triggered during the tier2 test: `TestJNIGlobalRefs`. The test uses the _aggressive_ heuristic which runs GC's back to back. The atomic `_preemption_allowed` variable was being misused in a non-atomic way which could lead to the regulator thread cancelling GC after the control thread has gone to the final mark safepoint.
