webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ccheung/8209385/webrev.00/
If a path such as -cp points to an non-empty directory is specified
during CDS dump time but is not being referenced for class loading, we
should not exit with the error "Cannot have non-empty directory in paths".
The fix is to skip checking the path entries which are not being
referenced during CDS dump time. Adding the _max_used_path_index field
in ClassLoaderExt so that the unreferenced path entries won't be checked
during dump time. The _max_used_path_index will also be stored in the
CDS archive header so that during run time, the unreferenced path
entries will not be checked.
Testing: hs-tier 1,2,3.
thanks,
Calvin
