Hi,

please review small patch for enhancement: 8187684 - Intrinsify 
Math.multiplyHigh(long, long)

Method Math.multiplyHigh was introduced in jdk9 and is not intrinsified. 
This patch adds such intrinsic by using existing MulHiLNode. For aarch64 
and x86_64 it uses respective cpu instruction (smulh/mulq), which is faster.


I've created a small JMH benchmark: 
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dpochepk/8187684/MultiplyHighBench.java to 
test the improved performance and measured it on aarch64(t88, R-Pi) and 
x86_64(i7-4770K). Benchmark shows about x2.5 improvement on aarch64 and 
about x2 on x86_64

Detailed benchmark results are here:

webrev jdk: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dpochepk/8187684/webrev.jdk.01/


I've found existing jtreg test for multiplyHigh in 
jdk/test/java/lang/Math which covers this method. I've run it in -Xmixed 
and -Xcomp modes and found no regressions.

Thanks,

Dmitrij
