JDK 9 has been upgraded to Little CMS 2.6.
Since LCMS in JDK 8u was previously identical to that in 9 - modulo a very
tiny number of white-space only differences, I'd like to keep these two 
in sync.
Also I believe 2.6 should resolve some MT issues we've seen.

Since the code was previously identical, it follows that the backport is 
identical
