[8u-dev] Request for review & approval: 8068033 JNI exception pending in jdk/src/share/bin/java.c

[Seán Coffey]

I'd like to backport this fix to jdk8u-dev.

bug report : https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8068033
webrev : http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~coffeys/webrev.8068033.jdk8u/webrev/
jdk 9 code review : 
http://mail.openjdk.java.net/pipermail/core-libs-dev/2015-February/031211.html

The net code change is identical to that of jdk9 fix but the 
CHECK_EXCEPTION_RETURN() macro was not present in the jdk8u java.c file 
and hence didn't need removing.

Kumar, can I ask you to confirm that the changes are ok ? JPRT is green.
