RFR: 8041946 - CMM Testing: 8u40 an allocated humongous object at the end of the heap should not prevents shrinking the heap

[Andrey Zakharov]

Hi, Jesper. Thanks for point.
Here is updated webrev:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~fzhinkin/azakharov/8041946/webrev.01/

Changed const name from MINIMAL_HEAP_SIZE to MINIMAL_YOUNG_SIZE
Tested locally as very minor changes

Thanks.
