Description
Summary
Remove the system property jdk.lang.ref.disableClearBeforeEnqueue that was added
to restore the Reference::enqueue to JDK 8 behavior, i.e. not to clear the referent.
Problem
The behavior of the Reference::enqueue method was changed in JDK 9 to
clear referent before enqueuing. A system property jdk.lang.ref.disableClearBeforeEnqueue
was added to allow existing code to revert to JDK 8 behavior as an interim solution
and give time to migrate to JDK 9 new behavior.
Solution
Remove jdk.lang.ref.disableClearBeforeEnqueue system property support.
Specification
Setting -Djdk.lang.ref.disableClearBeforeEnqueue=true will have no effect
to Reference::enqueue method.
No spec change since jdk.lang.ref.disableClearBeforeEnqueue system property
is undocumented.
