Hi,

Please review this change.  As I fix the test, I please need a sponsor.
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~goetz/wr17/8179953-ppc_flag/webrev.01/

On ppc, the mentioned flag is loaded as a 16 bit immediate, while it can have
bigger values.
I also adapt TestOptionWithRanges, which did not show the bug because
the flag has no effect with G1.

Best regards,
  Goetz.
