RFR(XL): 8167108 - SMR and JavaThread Lifecycle

[Daniel D. Daugherty]

Greetings,

Robbin rebased the project last night/this morning to merge with Thread
Local Handshakes (TLH) and also picked up additional changesets up thru:

This is the first time we've rebased the project to bits that are this
fresh (< 12 hours old at rebase time). We've done this because we think
we're done with this project and are in the final review-change-retest
cycle(s)... In other words, we're not planning on making any more major
changes for this project... :-)

*** Time for code reviewers to chime in on this thread! ***

Here is the updated full webrev:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/8167108-webrev/jdk10-08-full/

Here's is the delta webrev from the 2017.11.10 rebase:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/8167108-webrev/jdk10-08-delta/

Dan has submitted the bits for the usual Mach5 tier[1-5] testing
(and the new baseline also)...

We're expecting this round to be a little noisier than usual because
we did not rebase on a PIT snapshot so the new baseline has not been
through Jesper's usual care-and-feeding of integration_blockers, etc.

We welcome comments, suggestions and feedback.

Dan, Erik and Robbin
