Description
The *Klass::*_offset_in_bytes() functions are used to get the offset to a field in a Klass. All places where they are used, we add something like sizeof(klassOopDesc) to make the offset against the klassOopDesc instead.

For example in opto/memnode.cpp:
 if (tkls->offset() == Klass::access_flags_offset_in_bytes() + (int)sizeof(oopDesc)) {

There's a couple of variants to this:
 instanceKlass::init_thread_offset_in_bytes() + sizeof(klassOopDesc)
 Klass::access_flags_offset_in_bytes() + (int)sizeof(oopDesc)
 Klass::secondary_supers_offset_in_bytes() + klassOopDesc::header_size() * HeapWordSize
 Klass::java_mirror_offset_in_bytes() klassOopDesc::klass_part_offset_in_bytes()

The proposal is to move all these size adjustments into the *Klass:*_offset_in_bytes() functions.
