This seems to me like a classic case of not reading the instructions. @JohnTortugo, please read the [OpenJDK Developers' Guide](https://openjdk.org/guide/) before posting a PR with a huge change. There are sections in there that covers this exact case. The section [Contributing to an OpenJDK Project](https://openjdk.org/guide/#contributing-to-an-openjdk-project) really is mandatory reading before doing anything in OpenJDK.
