I have an initial patch that restores RandomAccessFile.setLength It also 
fixes FileChannel.map so that it only attempts to allocate the disk 
space when region to map overlaps with a hole in a sparse file.

10.0.1 was released last week. 10.0.2 is planned for July 2018. Once the 
changes are in jdk/jdk (for JDK 11) then we can discuss whether it's 
worth trying to get the changes into jdk-updates/jdk10u.
