[8u40] RFR(S): 8049043: Load variable through a pointer of an incompatible type in hotspot/src/share/vm/runtime/sharedRuntimeMath.hpp

[Vladimir Kozlov]

Hi Tobias,

I would suggest to keep all 4 fixes 8040121, 8049043, 8054054, and 8043301 are separate but push all of them together. 
It will help us to keep consistency with jdk9 bugs track.

You can send one request for all of them together (with 4 different changesets produced by hg export/import).
