RFR(S): 8230666: Exclude serviceability/sa/TestInstanceKlassSize.java on linuxppc64 and linuxppc64le

[Langer, Christoph]

Hi,

please review exclusion of serviceability/sa/TestInstanceKlassSize.java for linux on the ppc platforms.

The test was probably ever failing on these platforms. Martin has done some initial analysis of the problem. I've opened https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8230664 to track resolution (@Martin: can you please add some more technical detail to the bug? Thanks.)

The resolution will probably take some time and the platforms are not tier1, so we shall exempt the test from being executed for the time being.

This is the bug: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8230666
This is the patch:
