Filed the following new bug:

     JDK-8222893 markOopDesc::print_on() is a bit confused
     https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8222893

Coleen, please let me know if I've captured the confusion here... :-)

Dan

P.S.
What can I say? It's code that deals with mark oops, on-stack locks,
biased locks and inflated locks... If there was ever code that had
a right to be confused... ROFL...
