Hi,

Could I please get JDK-8078666 and JDK-8074312 backported to 8u60? I'd
need a sponsor for this.

We've been using the JDK-8078666 fix for Fedora 22 on JDK8 for a while
now. Similarly, the fix for JDK-8074312 is now also required for Fedora
21 and we've had this patch in use since March.

"Enable hotspot builds on 4.x Linux kernels"

JDK 9 fix applies cleanly modulo copyright changes.
