Re: RFR 8162108 Rename weakCompareAndSetVolatile to weakCompareAndSet

Below it seems like weakCompareAndSetVolatile is susceptible to spurious failure as much as other weak cas variants and so should have the same kind of retry loop. { boolean success = false; for (int c = 0; c < WEAK_ATTEMPTS && !success; c++)

Hi Paul, Thanks for doing this. Probably your IDE is fixing import statements. We'd prefer having that not happen for j.u.c. but we can live with it. Of course, keeping all the variants in sync is errorprone. Below is one case where what you're testing and what your assertions say are out of s
