Thanks for picking up the proposal! :-)

Some comments:

  - For the sake of completeness the default value should be explicit,
    i.e., tiered or default, and not NULL. Default flag values show up
    when running -XX:PrintFlagsFinal and such, so it's good with
    unsurprising output.

  - src/hotspot/share/runtime/globals.hpp:

    "TieredMode=4" in comments a number of times, should be something
    like "CompilationMode=highOnly|highOnlyQuickInternal"?

  - Since we're adding flags then I think a CSR is needed. My suggestion
    is to change subject to something like "Add high-level JIT
    compilation mode control mechanism".

Thanks!
