Hello,

Please review this patch, which updates hotspot in accordance with
changes to the class file format of MethodParameters attributes.

The latest spec version is here:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~abuckley/8misc.pdf

Any questions regarding the format change or the spec should be directed
to Alex Buckley, the spec owner.

The webrev is here:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~emc/8006949/

The enhancement request is here:
http://bugs.sun.com/view_bug.do?bug_id=8006949

The following CCC has been filed for this change:
http://ccc.us.oracle.com/8006948


The end-to-end tests for MethodParameters are presently disabled;
however, I have run the end-to-end tests with this patch, as well as the
companion patch for JDK-8006948, and seen no failures.

I am presently running testlist and JPRT jobs; however, given the
extremely small nature of the changeset, I do not anticipate seeing any
failures.

Thanks,
Eric
