Sync from jdk8/jdk8 to ppc-aix-port/stage this week

[Volker Simonis]

Hi Vladimir,

thanks for doing the merge. The new version works out of the box on
Linux/PPC64. Unfortunately we need two small changes in the jdk-repo
to make it work on AIX. I’ve opened "8029669: PPC64: 8027566 changes
broke AIX build after sync"
(https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8029669) for it and sent out
a webrev.

Regards,
Volker
