[8u-dev] Request for approval for CR 8211124: HotSpot vm_version.cpp should recognise updated VS2017

[Kevin Walls]

Hi,

I'd like to request approval to backport from the latest jdk repo to 8u:

8211124: HotSpot vm_version.cpp should recognise updated VS2017
JBS: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8211124

jdk repo changeset:
http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/rev/293c2728644c

hotsot review thread:
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/hotspot-runtime-dev/2018-September/030220.html

This is a clean backport, after a file path change.  8u hotspot diff pasted in below.

Thanks
Kevin
