> Hi all,

> Metaspace statistics is incorrect after JEP 387 when UseCompressedClassPointers is off.
> 
> For example, here is the incorrect metaspace statistics before the fix:
> Event:jdk.MetaspaceSummary {
>   startTime = 10:35:24.762
>   gcId = 3
>   when = "Before GC"
>   gcThreshold = 21.0 MB
>   metaspace = {
>     committed = 10.3 MB
>     used = 10.2 MB
>     reserved = 16.0 MB
>   }
>   dataSpace = {
>     committed = 10.3 MB
>     used = 10.2 MB
>     reserved = 16.0 MB
>   }
>   classSpace = {
>     committed = 10.3 MB
>     used = 10.2 MB
>     reserved = 16.0 MB

> This bug can be reproduced by running the following tests with `-XX:-UseCompressedClassPointers`, which would pass before JEP 387.

> The failing reason is that `Metaspace::is_class_space_allocation(mdtype)` [1] will always return false when `UseCompressedClassPointers` is off.
> So `RunningCounters::committed_words_nonclass()` will be returned even called with `Metaspace::is_class_space_allocation(Metaspace::ClassType)`, which is unreasonable.
> And `MetaspaceUtils::reserved_words(Metaspace::MetadataType mdtype)`/`MetaspaceUtils::used_words(Metaspace::MetadataType mdtype)` also suffer from the same bug.
