This case then sets the same flag in the caller of load_shared_class.  These InstanceKlass flags assert that we only set them once during class loading then never again. The exception should properly exit out of the call like all other TRAPS functions do.  Then the flag is set in the caller for the exception case.  The other case where shared classes don't match require the boolean return from check_shared_super_type.
