jmx-dev RFR 7132590: javax/management/remote/mandatory/notif/NotificationAccessControllerTest.java fails in JDK8-B22

Jaroslav,

The fix should be good to fix the failure.

It makes me think a special case, suppose that the test waits 2 
notifications, but the test might receive one unexpected notification 
with some more waiting, for example, with the old version, 2 expected 
notifications arrive within the first second, and the unexpected arrives 
in the second second, but with your fix the test might end before the 
unexpected notification arrives.

Not sure that we should take care of this case.

Thanks,
Shanliang
