Description
At the moment, during GC, when updating the remembered set, we defer updates to the remembered sets by enqueuing them into a DCQ to refine them later.

With the rebuild remembered sets feature (JDK-8180415) we only need to do this for regions where we track the remembered set for. These are much fewer than all of them usually, and checking for them should decrease refinement work significantly.
