I also do not see anything in the specs (JLS, JVMS and JVMTI) but I feel it is 
better to keep the original order if possible.
It is going to be an impact/change on the thread state:
  https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/25/docs/specs/jvmti.html#GetThreadState

AFAIU, with this change new combinations of thread state bits will be 
observable:
  `JVMTI_THREAD_STATE_WAITING` + `JVMTI_THREAD_STATE_BLOCKED_ON_MONITOR_ENTER`
  + (`JVMTI_THREAD_STATE_WAITING_INDEFINITELY` | 
`JVMTI_THREAD_STATE_WAITING_WITH_TIMEOUT`)

Also, it is a change in behavior with a compatibility risk involved. So, a CSR 
will be needed for this change.
I'm not sure yet if we need to consult with the JCK team on this if no JCK 
tests are failed.

What mach5 tests did you run? In this case, it is more safe to run mach5 tiers 
1-6.
@dholmes-ora may have some concerns here.
