Is there a reason not to just backport
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8140482
as a pre-requisite for this? It looks pretty uncontroversial (a lot of
it is indenting fixes),
makes the code a little more secure and would help any future
backports in these areas
if the code is in sync. The resulting backport of 8210836 would then
be largely as is
and may not even require review.
