Should fix #52757, #53026 and #53350.
This code got fairly awkward after this change, particularly because we must be able to handle straggler threads that try to join the mark-loop a long time after it has finished.
Open to suggestions on whether we should do a more significant refactor here to prevent this case from happening in the first place.
