> WIP, some code here is meant as a placeholder
> 
> Discussion: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8198331
> 
> Current goals and dependencies (To help keep track)
> - [x] 2 bit identity Hash Code
> - [ ] Elimination of locking from the Mark Word entirely (Hopefully)
> - [ ] 5 bit GC section (4 bit object age, 1 bit forwarding state)
> - [ ] No Mark Word in header until required
> - [ ] Support and optimizations for objects guaranteed to not have a Mark Word (May depend on Valhalla for the GC section)

Julian Waters has updated the pull request with a new target base due to a merge or a rebase. The pull request now contains two commits:
