There was no u122 (January 2017), u132 (April 2017) or
u142 (July 2017), so u152 (October 2017) has been accumulating
fixes since the last release from jdk8u/jdk8u in October 2016 (u112).

It might be more approachable for review via the merge.changeset links
I provided, or by comparing upstream u152-b16 with aarch64-u152-b16
(the only differences should be the AArch64 port). The individual patches
themselves should all have been reviewed already on the jdk8u mailing list.

Thanks,
