It looks good for me.
With very minor notes.
Now biased_lock_pattern and inline_type_pattern are equals.The comment that EnableValhalla and UseBiasedLocking can't be set to true both is located higher in the markWord.hpp text. Maybe it's make sense to repeat it near that constants? To make it more clear.

How frequently "markWord::print_on" is used? Should we add printing "inline type" markword info?
