I have filed JDK-8247901, to cover an issue detected by doclint, regarding
two conflicting @return descriptions for a single method.
I can make the fix, if you want, but I need confirmation of which one should
be deleted and which should be retained. I can make an informed guess
(one of them refers to `null` in the context of a `long` return code!)
but I would prefer that someone with domain-specific knowledge make the
call.

Here, if it helps, is the description from the bug:
doclint reports:
open/src/jdk.management.jfr/share/classes/jdk/management/jfr/FlightRecorderMXBean.java:213:
warning: @return has already been specified
* @return a unique ID that can be used for reading recording data.
^
1 warning
The source shows:
* @return a snapshot of all available recording data, not {@code null}
*
* @throws java.lang.SecurityException if a security manager exists
and the
* caller does not have {@code ManagementPermission("control")}
*
* @return a unique ID that can be used for reading recording data.
