Please, review the jdk 9 fix for: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8076579

9 hotspot webrev: http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~sspitsyn/webrevs/2015/hotspot/8076579-JVMTI-pop.1

Summary:

This bug is a regression that was introduced but the fix of: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-7187554

The bug is in the InterpreterRuntime::member_name_arg_or_null() function that does not return NULL if there is no invokestatic appendix argument (MemberName). It is why the _remove_activation_preserving_args is trying to to restore unexisting appendix argument when a pop instruction is executed by a debugger in the debuggee VM. The fix is to correctly set NULL in the thread vm_result when it is necessary: thread->set_vm_result(NULL);

Testing in progress: In progress: nsk.jvmti.testlist and nsk.jdi.testlist PopFrame tests, JTREG com/sun/jdi tests, ad-hog ExceptionBug.java test from the bug report

Thanks, Serguei
