RFR (trivial) 8208074: [TESTBUG] vmTestbase/nsk/jvmti/RedefineClasses/StressRedefineWithoutBytecodeCorruption/TestDescription.java failed with NullPointerException

Hi Chris,

Good catch.
It is possible that this webrev does not fix the JDK-8202896.
The JDK-8202896 is about timeouts which are normally intermittent (is it 
right?).

There are two options here:
   A: close 8202896 as a dup of 8208074
   B: keep the test problem listed and labeled with 8202896

Let's wait for Coleen's answer.

Thanks,
Serguei
