Well, you can pick up the patch from the jdk/jdk repository:
  https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/raw-rev/70fab3a8ff02

...and apply it to jdk8u/jdk8u-dev/hotspot here:
  https://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk8u/jdk8u-dev/hotspot/

The patch touches lots of environments, though, so testing would be tedious. It also has two simple
follow-up bugfixes, those need to be looked at as well. You can work with JDK 8u Updates project to
backport it yourself:

If one existed in OpenJDK, then the issue would have the linked issue in "Backports" section. There
are no such linked issues, which indicates no one had backported it (yet).
