> Hi all,

> This skips the test `TestFieldNullMarkers.java` when `-XX:-PreloadClasses` is

> 
> According to [JDK-8380053](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8380053), the 
> semantics of `@NullRestricted` are as follows:
>> The proposed new interpretation of the @NullRestricted annotation is as 
>> follows:
>>  - if the type of the field has been loaded during the preloading process 
>> and is a concrete value class, then the  @NullRestricted semantic is applied 
>> to the field
>>  - if the type of the field cannot / has not been loaded during the 
>> preloading process, or the loaded type is not a concrete value class, then 
>> the annotation is ignored
> 
> Since `-PreloadClasses` is specified, when the test is loaded, the classes of 
> its `@NullRestricted` fields are not loaded. Therefore, these fields cannot 
> be treated as null-restricted in accordance to the above semantics. 
> Consequently, the test is throwing `java.lang.RuntimeException: No NPE 
> thrown` because the VM permits a null-write to what it considers a regular 
> field.
> 
> This was not noticed until 
> [JDK-8383242](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8383242) was integrated, as 
> the semantics were not applied in the VM due to a bug this CR fixed. 
> 
> Testing: tier 1, running this test locally with all constellations of the 
> flag, and Oracle-internal tests.
