The only time that we are entering on behalf of another thread is when doing re-locking in deoptimization. This has worked because the deoptee thread is suspended. However ResourceMarks have been using the wrong thread when logging is enabled.

Thanks for fixing this. 
There are more occurences of 'current' at synchronizer.cpp:1433 and synchronizer.cpp:1495 you should change.
Besides that the changes look good to me. I'll put the change through our CI. Results will arrive tomorrow.
Thanks, Richard.
