Are you thinking about a JNI method calling getCallerClass?  Or refer getCallerClass being the bottom of the stack?

I don’t see any issue for a JNI method calling getCallerClass and it’s doing:
*     Class<?> caller = walker.walk(s ->
*         s.map(StackFrame::getDeclaringClass)
*          .skip(2)
*          .findFirst());
