Hi,

Could you please approve a backport of 8035653 to jdk8u-dev?

webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~akasko/jdk8u/8035653/webrev.00/
bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8035653
jdk9 changeset: http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/dev/jdk/rev/8e5e92e0530e

Patch from jdk9/dev does not apply cleanly, change to 
DualStackPlainDatagramSocketImpl.java was already added to jdk8 as part 
of 8072466 [1][2].

This patch brings changes to DualStackPlainDatagramSocketImpl.c and also 
includes B8035653.java test.
