-  // slow path of the write barrier (for performance reasons we don't
-  // update RSets for references whose source is a young region, so we
-  // don't need to look at dirty cards on young regions). But, doing

-  // requests might be of non-trivial size (and the larger the region
-  // size is, the fewer allocations requests will be considered

-  // region size). So, when one of these calls succeeds in allocating
-  // a block it does the card dirtying after it releases the Heap_lock
-  // which is why it will return without holding it.
-  //
-  // The above assymetry is the reason why locking / unlocking is done
-  // explicitly (i.e., with Heap_lock->lock() and
-  // Heap_lock->unlocked()) instead of using MutexLocker and
-  // MutexUnlocker objects. The latter would ensure that the lock is
-  // unlocked / re-locked at every possible exit out of the basic
-  // block. However, we only want that action to happen in selected
-  // places.
-  //
-  // Further, if the above methods are called during a safepoint, then
-  // naturally there's no assumption about the Heap_lock being held or
-  // there's no attempt to unlock it. The parameter at_safepoint
-  // indicates whether the call is made during a safepoint or not (as
-  // an optimization, to avoid reading the global flag with
-  // SafepointSynchronize::is_at_safepoint()).

-  // * at_safepoint  : whether the call is done at a safepoint; this

-  //                   (at_safepoint == false) or not (at_safepoint == true)
-  // * do_dirtying   : whether the method should dirty the allocated
