How is it incorrect? If testClass is NULL, that does imply that 
JNI_OnLoad has not been called yet, which itself implies that the object 
cannot be an instance of TEST_CLASS.

I think in this test you could make looking up testClass local to 
verifyOwnedMonitors() since calling it is under our control.  In 
GetOwnedMonitorInfoTest, there is no place to safely make it local, 
because we need testClass during a JVMTI callback, and we can't always 
correctly look up TEST_CLASS in the callback. That's why the lookup was 
moved as part of 8191229 into JNI_OnLoad.
