Hi, Please review this 11u backport; this is the same patch as for head, except for microbenchmark makefile changes that did not apply because the file doesn't exist in 11u, and the actual microbenchmark, which would only add weight for no benefit.
Bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8259886 webrev: https://djelinski.github.io/8259886-11u/webrev/index.html Testing: Linux x86_64 tier1 and tier2. Thanks, Daniel
