[8u] RFR: Backport of JDK-8222670: pathological case of JIT recompilation and code cache bloat

[Liu, Xin]

Hi, Reviewers,

Could you review this backport patch?

BUG: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8222670
Webrev: https://cr.openjdk.java.net/~xliu/8222670/webrev.8u-dev/

I can’t cleanly apply the original patch to jdk8u.  I made the following changes.

  1.  Include JDK-8223537.  It solved suspend problem in blocking mode. One line change.
  2.  Shorter wait period.  Otherwise, it’s easy to timeout for the  test.  It’s part of a JDK-8066770.

  1.  +1 for Tier4MinInvocationThreshold and Tier4CompileThreshold. Otherwise, we have to backport JDK-8059604, which looks like complicated.
