> Hi everyone,
> 
> Passing a negative value to `-XX:MinOopMapAllocation` could trigger an integer overflow. This value is used as the initial size for the `OopMap` `GrowableArray` list inside `OopMapSet`. Negative inputs hits an assert when allocating for `GrowableArray`. Restricting this flag to positive values ensures we get a clear error message instead of a crash.
> 
> Testing:
> - Oracle tier 1
> - Local tests with `-XX:MinOopMapAllocation=x`, covering both valid and invalid values.
