JDK-8155739 - [TESTBUG] VarHandles/Unsafe tests for weakCAS should allow spurious failures
Description
I have been running tier1 on sifive unmatched and alibaba's thead board and found some tests ( which use WeakCompareAndSet* functionality) to fail intermitently.
They fail more often on slower board ( sifive), and rarely on faster board ( thead)

lists of tests to fail:
hotspot:tier1
compiler/unsafe/JdkInternalMiscUnsafeAccessTestChar.java: Test unsafe access for char
compiler/unsafe/JdkInternalMiscUnsafeAccessTestDouble.java: Test unsafe access for double

jdk:tier1
