That would be weird.

The fixed test accesses DBB at offset 0, so the underlying storage (returned by
Unsafe.allocateMemory) has to be unaligned in that case. This fixes the testbug and gets the proper
behavior, apparently?

But then ByteBufferViewsAtomicityTests should crash the same way, no? And that would be odd, as JVM
crash is not the expected behavior in this case. It surely is understandable, but not expected.
