Looks good.

Since it is platform specific code new rule allow you to push changes yourself.

Make sure you have jcheck enabled - ~/.hgrc has

[extensions]
jcheck=/<your path to jcheck>/jcheck.py
[hooks]
pretxnchangegroup=python:jcheck.hook
pretxncommit=python:jcheck.hook

See http://openjdk.java.net/projects/code-tools/jcheck/

And, please, make sure changeset has correct header:

8074349: AARCH64: C2 generates poor code for some byte and character stores
Summary: Use iRegIorL2I as the source operand for all stores of int size or less.
