RFR (S) 8202684: Minimal VM build is broken after JDK-8199067, JDK-8202638

[Thomas Stüfe]

Hi Alexey,

the fix is okay for now, I think. Save that the scale sub option for
the VM.metaspace jcmd will not work for the minimal build. I think I
will rewrite this to not use NMT functionality.

So, minimal build is something to test too? I already test-build
nonpch, zero and 32bit before pushing. I really think if these are
important enough to cause immediate follow up fixes, they all should
be included into the tier1 tests of oracle.

I know, I am barking up the wrong tree here :)

..Thomas
