Suggestion:

    // The thread is protected by this list and has not yet exited

src/hotspot/share/services/threadIdTable.cpp line 46:

Suggestion:

Atomic<bool> ThreadIdTable::_is_initialized{false};

I don't know why but the brace initializer seems to be preferred here - see 
e.g. https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/30130/files

src/hotspot/share/services/threadIdTable.cpp line 88:

It looks odd to me to mix raw accesses and accessor functions - plus we prefer 
accessors/settors to explicitly indicate when  they have acquire/release 
semantics, I would suggest not having the `is_initialized()` method - and only 
this Line 83 usage actually requires the acquire semantics the others can be 
load_relaxed.
