I created https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8343560 to track the possible removal of `JNICALL` in the JDK source. Ultimately, we need to decide if it is worth the churn, or if we should keep it "just in case" some future platform will require a special keyword in that location (utterly unlikely as it might seem). If we go ahead with it, there are additional "downstream" fixes that needs to go with it, I highlighted some in the JBS issue.
