-   Claimed and deferred bits are used together in G1 during the evacuation
-   pause. These bits can have the following state transitions:
-   1. The claimed bit can be put over any other card state. Except that
-      the "dirty -> dirty and claimed" transition is checked for in
-      G1 code and is not used.
-   2. Deferred bit can be set only if the previous state of the card
-      was either clean or claimed. mark_card_deferred() is wait-free.
-      We do not care if the operation is be successful because if
-      it does not it will only result in duplicate entry in the update
-      buffer because of the "cache-miss". So it's not worth spinning.
