RFR: JDK-8056176 - Expected IOE or NO UnsupportedOperationException is not thrown when setting UART Baud Rate to unsupported value

[Riaz A Aimandi]

OK, you can submit the fix, as it matches with the current spec.
But if you agree that IllegalArgumentException is more appropriate for this case, then please report an spec issue for consideration during next spec revision.

Thanks,
