Sure. This is the full list:

Approved for 8u141 in July:

8144566: Custom HostnameVerifier disables SNI extension
8155049: New tests from 8144566 fail with "No expected Server Name Indication"
8165231: java.nio.Bits.unaligned() doesn't return true on ppc
8174164: SafePointNode::_replaced_nodes breaks with irreducible loops
8174729: Race Condition in java.lang.reflect.WeakCache
8175097: [TESTBUG] 8174164 fix missed the test

Rejected:

8173941: SA does not work if executable is DSO
8162384: Performance regression: bimorphic inlining may be bypassed by type speculation
8153711: [REDO] JDWP: Memory Leak: GlobalRefs never deleted when processing invokeMethod command

All three rejected ones are included in our RPMs. The last two arose
from reported customer issues. The DSO one is related to issues building
on the latest versions of Fedora.
