(fs) Changing the modification time on a unix domain socket file fails

FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.8.0_60"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_60-b27)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 25.60-b23, mixed mode)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Linux debian 3.16.0-4-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 3.16.7-ckt11-1+deb8u4 (2015-09-19) x86_64 GNU/Linux

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
We need to change the modification time of all files (including directories, symlinks, fifos and sockets) in a given directory. Trying to change the modification time of a unix domain socket file always fails with the following Exception:

java.nio.file.FileSystemException: /tmp/mysocket: No such device or address
        at sun.nio.fs.UnixException.translateToIOException(UnixException.java:91)
        at sun.nio.fs.UnixException.rethrowAsIOException(UnixException.java:102)
        at sun.nio.fs.UnixException.rethrowAsIOException(UnixException.java:107)
        at sun.nio.fs.UnixPath.openForAttributeAccess(UnixPath.java:787)
        at sun.nio.fs.UnixFileAttributeViews$Basic.setTimes(UnixFileAttributeViews.java:74)


STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
Create a unix domain socket file, e.g. with the following command:
nc -lU /tmp/mysocket
(note: only the netcat-openbsd variant supports the -U option)

Then try to run the program given in the test case.

EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
The program should update the modification time of the socket file because unix domain socket is just a normal file with a modification time that can be changed.
ACTUAL -
The exception above is thrown.

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.
