[JDK-8343190](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8343190) was in mainline for a few days. I have now caught the case where JTReg fails to build due to network failure (wget exit code 4):

Waiting 256 seconds before retrying Build failed Error: Process completed with exit code 1. It does not look that retries added by [JDK-8343190](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8343190) work: we retried for 25 minutes and then failed anyway. So I would suspect that is a worker configuration issue rather than transient network issue. It does not make sense to wait for 25 minutes without a high chance of success. This means we are better off without [JDK-8343190](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8343190), and can back it out. Users should then see their GHA jobs fail almost immediately and can restart right away. ------------- Commit messages: - Revert "8343190: GHA: Try building JTReg several times" Changes: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21803/files Webrev: https://webrevs.openjdk.org/?repo=jdk&pr=21803&range=00 Issue: https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8343379 Stats: 18 lines in 1 file changed: 0 ins; 16 del; 2 mod Patch: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21803.diff Fetch: git fetch https://git.openjdk.org/jdk.git pull/21803/head:pull/21803 PR: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/pull/21803
