Good except for that typo.

Suggestion:
constraint(G1HeapRegionSizeConstraintFunc, AfterErgo) \
src/hotspot/share/gc/g1/jvmFlagConstraintsG1.cpp line 88:

Maybe convert this to MB? The minimum is always supposed to be a multiple of
MBs, and the endlessly long in-bytes number is awkward to use.
Suggestion:
"greater than or equal to ergonomic heap region minimum
size (%zuM)\n",
value, G1HeapRegionBounds::min_size() / M);
(Did not check if that M value is in scope).
