> An error in the original implementation left us vulnerable to a race between a worker thread which is promoting a region in place and another worker or mutator thread who is allocating memory for old objects within the same region.
>
> This PR prevents this race by requiring the worker thread that promotes a region in place to finish the preparation of the region's remembered set before it makes the region available to other threads for allocation of old-gen memory.
