We are seeing some major regression in GC performance with Julia master and wonder if it may be caused by this fix. Presumably if the freelist is long, and we do a lot of jl_gc_internal_obj_base_ptr calls, then this would indeed be slow-ish.

There is likely some low-hanging fruit here.

We may possibly restrict this loop for the subset of the free-list which is contained in the page.

Will open a PR with that.
