This is a backout of [JDK-8258229](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8258229) for JDK25 only. The problematic code has already been removed by [JDK-8358821](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8358821) in JDK26.

The backout is clean for the C++ code, but the test backout includes the backout of the follow-up change [JDK-8356310](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8356310).

Rationale: Minimize risk for JDK25. We should use the better fix JDK-8358821 in the long term. However, that one should get some more stabilization time before backporting it. Also see JBS issue.

Proposed long term solution: Backport JDK-8358821 to jdk25u and revert this change again after an appropriate time.

Short term: The issue solved by JDK-8258229 is not critical. It should be ok to postpone the fix to jdk25u.
