InetAddress.isReachable fix ETA

[Jaikiran Pai]

Hello Yuval,

Can you provide some details (including any relevant application code 
snippet) on what issue you are running into? The linked JBS issue is an 
enhancement raised in context of a specific virtual thread usage that 
was discussed in the mailing lists (the links to those are available in 
the JBS issue's comment).

Are you using virtual threads in your application? How/where does 
InetAddress.isReachable() get used in your application? Is the issue you 
are running into applicable even for platform threads? Which version of 
Java is your application using?
