6627787: CMS: JVM refuses to start up with -Xms16m -Xmx16m
7000125: CMS: Anti-monotone young gen sizing with respect to maximum whole heap size specification
7027529: CMS: retire CMSUseOldDefaults flag
Simplify CMS heap sizing code, relying on ergonomic initial sizing consistent with other collectors for the most part, controlling only young gen sizing to rein in pause times. Make CMS young gen sizing default statically cpu-dependant. Remove inconsistencies wrt generation sizing and policy code, allowing for the fixing for 6627787 and 7000125. For 7027529, retire the flag CMSUseOldDefaults which had been introduced as a bridge from JDK 5 to JDK 6 a number of years ago.

Closed a timing hole during which concurrent full gc requests can be missed. The hole can increase the latency of the response to a full gc request by up to the value of CMSWaitDuration. If CMSWaitDuration=0 is, as currently, interpreted as an unbounded wait, suitable in certain tuning scenarios, the application can potentially hang. Made two obscure tunables, including CMSWaitDuration, manageable.

Inserted missing yield(check)s in closures used during the work-stealing phase of parallel concurrent marking, a missing synchronous yield-request in the cms perm gen allocation path, and a terminator-terminator for the offer_termination invocation that monitors the yield status of the concurrent marking task. Elaborated some documentation comments and made some task queue termination loop flags configurable at start-up to aid debugging in the field.
