[jdk17u-dev] RFR: 8072070: Improve interpreter stack banging

Thu Oct 27 11:08:25 UTC 2022

Original patch applies almost cleanly. The only difference is in os.cpp where `thread->as_Java_thread()` is used instead of `JavaThread::cast(thread)` because https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8268368 (Adopt cast notation for JavaThread conversions) is not in 17u.

Testing: jtreg tier1, tier2 on x86 and aarch64.
