Looks okay.

test/jdk/valhalla/valuetypes/PrimitiveTypeConversionTest.java line 64:

Suggestion:

        MethodHandle mh1 = lookup.findStatic(PrimitiveTypeConversionTest.class, "narrow", methodType(Value.class.asValueType(), Value.class.asPrimaryType()));


This change will be needed anyway if it's decided to disallow `Value.ref.class` and `Value.val.class`.  We can wait until that discussion is resolved.
