In future, when cherry-picking other fixes for a backport, can you make
sure to credit that bug ID so it is also resolved as backported?

e.g. this is how we ensured all relevant bug IDs were included for the
AArch64 port in 8u:

https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u/hotspot/rev/f57189b7648d

I've now manually created the backport issue for the PPC fix:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8215144

Thanks,
