[jdk8u-dev] RFR: 8284620: CodeBuffer may leak _overflow_arena

[Zhengyu Gu]

I would like to backport this patch to 8u for fixing a memory leak.

The original patch does not apply cleanly due to context difference. However, the patch is small, easily resolved manually.

Test:

- [x]  hotspot_compiler
