      For remembered sets G1 reports wasted memory in remembered set data structures.

      The term "wasted" is a bit misleading as it might imply always unusable memory, or memory that can't be used ever.

      However, what this meant to indicate is memory that we allocated too much because of our bulk allocators.

      Rename to the more exact term "unused" everywhere.
