Hi,

Please find below a trivial fix for:

https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8150856
8150856: Inconsistent API documentation for @param caller
         in System.LoggerFinder.getLogger

http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~dfuchs/webrev_8150856/webrev.00

The @param caller clause says that caller can be null, whereas
the @throws clause says that NPE will be thrown.

The @throws clause is correct and @param needs to be fixed.

best regards,
