The target code is in runWorker() instead of tryTrim()/awaitWork() and the surrounding code is different from the current master, as well as the original mask name. The core change is the same, candidate for CTL.compareAndSet is constructed using '(RC_MASK & c) | (TC_MASK & (c - TC_UNIT))' instead of '(UC_MASK & (c - TC_UNIT))' to correctly preserve the RC subfield.
