Requesting approval for putback to 7u2 phase 2.

changes for 7082769 fix have led to behavioural changes which can
lead to native file descriptor exhaustion. Basically - file
descriptors are not released until all streams referencing them are
closed.
For the short term, we should backout the 7082769 changes until a
full solution which doesn't cause issue in terms of compatibility is
found.
I'm hoping to get this change into 7u2.

This won't be going into jdk8 since I intend to get a new fix in
there which we can bake before porting back to older JDKs.
