> Hi all,
>
> This PR refactors the mark word to use the order of bits as specified in [JEP 450](https://openjdk.org/jeps/450).
>
> Specifically, there are three portions to this change:
> - Moving the age bits lower to their intended position.
> - Fixing a miscompilation in the native `hashCode` intrinsic that got unearthed as a result.
> - Updating the documentation to be more inline with the mainline docs and minimal Valhalla additions.
>
> Feedback is welcome, especially for the doc changes. If there are any ideas of other places in which similar miscompilations could occur, that would be valuable to know as well.
