Hello!
I'm seeking for approval to backport this fix into jdk8u-dev.
Comparing to Jdk9, the patch had to be changed mainly due to compact
string support introduced in jdk9.
However, the fix is essentially the same: we just avoid getting too
close to Integer.MAX_VALUE when doing reallocations unless explicitly
required.
Would you please help review it?
