Thanks Staffan!

Could I get a Reviewer too look at this as well please?



I got a question why the changesets didn't apply cleanly to jdk7, here 
is a summary:

For the HotSpot part:
There were no aix or bsd-darwin mapfiles in jdk7.

For JDK:
The testlibraries changes in jdk8 were already backported to jdk7 as a 
separate change.
The .sh-files that were removed were slightly different (jdk8 passed a 
${TESTVMOPTS} to the java process).
The context in problemlist.txt was different.

The main logic in the changesets applied to jdk7 cleanly.

Regards,
Andreas
