JVM/TI code review request (XS and M) (7182152)

Greetings,

I've updated the fix due to comments in Code Review Round 0.

Here is a summary of changes made to the various files:

src/share/vm/oops/cpCacheOop.cpp (HSX-23.6, HSX-24)
src/share/vm/oops/cpCache.cpp (HSX-25)
src/share/vm/oops/klassVtable.cpp
   - removed the new RC_TRACE_NO_CR() macro calls at Coleen's request;
     these files are outside of JVM/TI RedefineClasses proper so the
     tracing/debug style should not be dictated by JVM/TI RedefineClasses
     style that is currently in use
   - did not touch the existing RC_TRACE... macros in the file; removing
     the existing macro calls would be outside the scope of this bug

src/share/vm/oops/cpCacheOop.cpp (HSX-23.6, HSX-24)
src/share/vm/oops/cpCache.cpp (HSX-25)
   - copy a comment from 
ConstantPoolCacheEntry::is_interesting_method_entry()
     to ConstantPoolCacheEntry::check_no_old_or_obsolete_entries()

src/share/vm/oops/klassVtable.cpp
   - Copied the new comment intended to prevent the "break" from
     re-materializing again from klassItable::adjust_method_entries()
     to klassVtable::adjust_method_entries(); yes, I'm paranoid.

In the HSX-25 version only:
src/share/vm/oops/metadata.hpp
   - revert changes

src/share/vm/oops/cpCacheOop.cpp
src/share/vm/oops/klassVtable.cpp
   - wrap uses of is_valid() in NOT_PRODUCT macro as appropriate

Here are the URLs for the updated webrevs:

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/7182152-webrev/1-hsx24/
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dcubed/7182152-webrev/1-hsx25/

The JPDA stack testing that I started on Friday is still running on
WinXP so I'm blocked for checking the recompile due to these changes.
I'll start a recompile on Solaris X86, but that will take some time.

Thanks, in advance, for more comments, suggestions or questions.

Dan
