In that test, JNI code is doing a loop of ` jvmti->Allocate()` followed `sleep()` followed by a `jvmti->Deallocate()`. There is no JVM lock implementation to be tested on jvmti Allocate/Deallocate, they are implemented using malloc/free. Let us save test time, code complexity and confusion by removing this test.
