RFR (XS) 8058818: Allocation of more then 1G of memory using Unsafe.allocateMemory is still causi, ng a fatal error on 32bit platforms

[George Triantafillou]

Hi Coleen,

Looks good, thanks for doing this.

In answer to the comment "// Does the option above override if all the tests are run with NMT???", the JTREG run tag "@run main/othervm" will run UnsafeMallocLimit2 in a separate VM with the options specified (-Xmx32m -XX:NativeMemoryTracking=off) in the test.

-George

Summary: The assert was firing for NMT_Off and minimal too even though 
the size isn't used.

open webrev at http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~coleenp/8058818/
bug link https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8058818

Tested with the NMT tests.

thanks,
Coleen
