        The ConcurrentMark class provides two overloads for mark_stack_push

        - mark_stack_push(oop) - CAS-based
        - mark_stack_push(oop*, int) - lock based, used to transfer from task-local to global mark stack

        The unused overload is documented as being used only during evacuation pauses, but it is actually unused.
