Hi Yasumasa,

As Erik wrote in the CR each part of this needs to be reviewed by the
appropriate component team - this seems to be mostly client-libs with a
dash of serviceability.

Also note that only hotspot pushes need a sponsor as they have to go in
via our JPRT build/test system. In other areas any JDK9 committer can
push reviewed changes directly (with assumed sufficient build/test
coverage).
