Description
G1Policy::revise_young_list_target_length calls update_young_length_bounds, which has a bool third argument.  The comment in that call indicating the parameter name is incorrect - it's "need_one_eden_region bug" should be "after_gc".  The parameter name was changed during review of JDK-8297186, and this call was not updated.
Comments
No longer an issue because JDK-8298215 removed the relevant argument.
