>> Please review this change for JDK-8214976.  This change adds attribute warnings to header file compilerWarnings.hpp so that compilation warnings get issued when certain system functions are called directly, instead of hotspot's os:: versions of the functions.  Many additional files were changed because of compilation warnings resulting from the compilerWarnings.hpp changes.

So, for now, I just added PRAGMA_PERMIT_FORBIDDEN_C_FUNCTION to zMountPoint_linux.cpp.  There's a similar issue with gtest/logging/test_logDecorators.cpp.
