8138922: StubCodeDesc constructor publishes partially-constructed objects on StubCodeDesc::_list

[Andrew Haley]

This is bug:

8138922: StubCodeDesc constructor publishes partially-constructed objects on StubCodeDesc::_list

Fixed in JDK 9 by:

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk9/jdk9/hotspot/rev/30b120bce29d

However, I am seeing crashes in 8u, and the fix was never back-ported.

I don't know why it wasn't back-ported, but I guess it should be.  I
can't find any discussion of a possible back-port.  Does anyone
remember?
