The main advantage is that it's easier/quicker to test individual components. The intent is that the test groups are aligned with bug database sub-components.

This change looks good to me.  It's good to break jdk_util into 
sub-groups.  Is there a way to avoid listing the rest of java/util/* not 
covered by these new sub-groups (i.e. something like this:
    :jdk_collections \
    :jdk_concurrent \
    :jdk_stream \
    java/util \
    sun/util

so that new subdirectory added under java/util will be included? I have 
seen cases that new tests in a new directory added but not listed in the 
old test/Makefile were never run but unnoticed (you cleaned up that 
logic in JDK-8015068 - thanks).
