review request (M): 6711908: JVM needs direct access to some annotations

[Vladimir Kozlov]

c1_GraphBuilder.cpp, can you remove setting bailout message for forced inlining? 
It should be done proper uniform way for C1 inlining later.

I think, next assert should check (id >= _unknown && id < _annotation_LIMIT) 
instead:

+    void set_annotation(ID id) {
+      assert((int)id > 0 && (int)id < BitsPerInt, "oob");


In header file classFileParser.hpp you should not specify ClassFileParser:: in 
method parse_classfile_attributes(() declaration:

ClassFileParser::ClassAnnotationCollector* parsed_annotations


Instead of asserts in apply_to() methods we should use guarantee("not 
implemented") or something.


I don't think next should be part of these changes:

+#if 0
+    // The parsing of @Retention is for example only.


Add parenthesis around expression in next condition:

+  while (--nann >= 0 && index-2 + min_size <= limit) {


Instead of passing pointers to classFileParser's new attributes fields 
(_synthetic_flag, _sourcefile, ...) as arguments add accessors functions which 
set these fields.


I think next is typo, should be _in_method check:

+  case vmSymbols::VM_SYMBOL_ENUM_NAME(java_lang_invoke_ForceInline_signature):
+    if (_location != _in_class)  break;
+    return _method_ForceInline;
+  default: break;
+  }

Thanks,
Vladimir
