6987763: assert(kind() == EmptyExceptionState) failed: only EmptyExceptionStates can be modified
Reviewed-by: roland
The fix for 6987763 aggressively kills unusable locals in ValueStacks
and there's some special case logic to keep these locals alive for
JVMTI. An assert that should have been relaxed was missed leading to
lots of tests failing. The fix is to properly relax this assert.
The original changes for 6987763 were tested with the nsk tests but we
rearranged some code in what was thought to be a benign way and didn't
rerun the tests which is why this was missed. I've rerun all the nsk
JVMTI related tests and it looks good.
