New issue 1457 by [email protected]: NewGC: Support EnsureNotWhite on x64
http://code.google.com/p/v8/issues/detail?id=1457

x64 incremental marking is missing an optimization that is present on IA32. This is the EnsureNotWhite call in the macro assembler, which checks whether the value being written into a black object is an issue that it needs to notify the incremental marker about. If the value is non-white or the value is a pointer-free object that can be marked black then we do not need to inform the incremental marker.
