>> ObjectMonitors can only be used by JavaThreads (modulo some interactions with hashcodes and deflation) but we use "Thread*" almost everywhere mainly due to use of TRAPS (and TRAPS will itself use JavaThread once JDK-8252685 is done). Also some uses of TRAPS in the API's are wrong as, for example, monitor entry can never throw an exception.
