RFR(T): 8247495: ProblemList vmTestbase/nsk/jvmti/SetFieldAccessWatch/setfldw001/TestDescription.java

[Chris Plummer]

Hi Dan,

What's the criteria for "noise". I don't consider the failures for this 
test as noisy. I only see 3 in mach5 CI testing for all of JDK 15. JDK 
14 does  appear to have been somewhat noisy, possibly enough so that it 
looks like maybe something changed to reduce the number of failures in 
15. In any case, do you plan on backporting to 14?

thanks,

Chris
