machenbach 85ba94f28c Revert of [heap] Parallel newspace evacuation, semispace copy, and compaction \o/ (patchset #16 id:620001 of https://codereview.chromium.org/1577853007/ )
Reason for revert:
[Sheriff] Leads to crashes on all webrtc chromium testers, e.g.:
https://build.chromium.org/p/chromium.webrtc/builders/Mac%20Tester/builds/49664

Original issue's description:
> [heap] Parallel newspace evacuation, semispace copy, and compaction \o/
>
> All parallelism can be turned off using --predictable, or --noparallel-compaction.
>
> This patch completely parallelizes
>  - semispace copy: from space -> to space (within newspace)
>  - newspace evacuation: newspace -> oldspace
>  - oldspace compaction: oldspace -> oldspace
>
> Previously newspace has been handled sequentially (semispace copy, newspace
> evacuation) before compacting oldspace in parallel. However, on a high level
> there are no dependencies between those two actions, hence we parallelize them
> altogether. We base the number of evacuation tasks on the overall set of
> to-be-processed pages (newspace + oldspace compaction pages).
>
> Some low-level details:
>  - The hard cap on number of tasks has been lifted
>  - We cache store buffer entries locally before merging them back into the global
>    StoreBuffer in a finalization phase.
>  - We cache AllocationSite operations locally before merging them back into the
>    global pretenuring storage in a finalization phase.
>  - AllocationSite might be compacted while they would be needed for newspace
>    evacuation. To mitigate any problems we defer checking allocation sites for
>    newspace till merging locally buffered data.
