I don't think it's worth spending effort splitting up these changes, at
least not a fine grain split as this is just moving code around.
Periodically there are cross-cutting changes, the warnings clean-up was
the last big one I think, and often the effort to split them up is more
than the original refactoring work. The only thing that might make sense
here is a core/client split only because there are separate team forests
and it reduces the potential for merge errors.
Fredrik - have you thought about your route to master? Are you thinking
jdk8/tl or jdk8/awt or the easy-pass-skip-testing lane that is jdk8/build.
