Hi All,

When File.createTempFile() is called with some special parameters, it runs into infiniteloop and hangs. It is because it does not always mean a file exists when the method, createFileExclusively(), returns false. This fix is going to solve such issues reported in JDK-8013827 and JDK-8011950.And I also added some testcases to verify it.
