    runtime: Adjust when write barriers are active · d0eab030
    Rick Hudson authored
    Even though the world is stopped the GC may do pointer
    writes that need to be protected by write barriers.
    This means that the write barrier must be on
    continuously from the time the mark phase starts and
    the mark termination phase ends. Checks were added to
    ensure that no allocation happens during a GC.
    
    Hoist the logic that clears pools the start of the GC
    so that the memory can be reclaimed during this GC cycle.
