First, we look for a match with resolved_klass, checking for a match with holder_klass along the way. Then we continue iterating (not starting over) the itable using the second loop, checking only for a match with holder_klass.

I wonder if you can get rid of `temp_reg3` (and the `holder_offset` argument of `MacroAssembler::lookup_interface_method_stub()`) by defining `resolved_klass_reg` as `r17` in `VtableStubs::create_itable_stub()` and defining `Register holder_offset = method_result` as local variable in `MacroAssembler::lookup_interface_method_stub()` (the usages of `holder_offset` and `method_result` don't seem to overlap).

Otherwise looks good.
