Description
In JDK-8130728 we disabled the workaround by default and have not seen any issues (other than JDK-8029453). So now the workaround can be removed completely.
Comments
There is a bug with the refactoring used in the fix - the _cur_index is being read outside the mutex (again) and so can change value.
