The logic in this file (hotspot/test/Makefile) is very similar to that
of jdk/test/Makefile, as a matter of fact some of it has been copy
pasted. It would be nice if the output dir paths would be set up the
same way in both cases, to avoid confusion and all of that.
It would be even better to share the logic all together to avoid
duplication, but that's a separate issue.

Hi all,
this patch changes the output directory for hotspot's jtreg tests when
run via the top-level Makefile targets such as
`make test-hotspot-jtreg`.
The current directory is
<top-level>/build/<conf>/hotspot/linux-x64/testoutput
(on an x86-64 machine running Linux). There is no need to place the
"testoutput" directory in a directory which name is based on OS and arch,
that is already done by the current configuration. Therefore, we can
instead place the "testoutput" directory in
<top-level>/build/<conf>/hotspot/, which is a more reasonable location
for the output from hotspot's tests.
Enhancement:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8146985
Webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~ehelin/8146985/00/webrev
Testing:
- Running `make test-hotspot-jtreg` locally
- JPRT (the patch does not affect JPRT since JPRT does not use
ALT_OUTPUTDIR)
Thanks,
Erik
