Hi,
please review this test bug fix:

bug:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8065764


test/javax/management/monitor/CounterMonitorTest.java
L61 - observedValue could be Integer
Could be, but not make difference, observedValue is only used with the operation "==", like
   while (value != observedValue)
L225-238 - you could replace this block with the usage of Phaser (if you'd do that you could completely remove 'observedValue')
Not sure that it is a good idea to remove "observedValue" by using Phaser, yes using Phaser can tell when the monitor does an observation, but it is better to know which count value the monitor observed, in case the thread was waked up accidentally.

Thanks,

The test tested the mode "difference", according to the Javadoc:
      If the counter difference mode is used, the value of the derived
gauge is calculated as the difference between the observed counter
values for two successive observations.

The test set the first value and then waited 2 times of
granularityperiod at line 171, hoped that the monitor would get the
first observation during this waiting time, but the test could fail
because granularityperiod * 2 was not enough and the test did the second
set before the monitor did the first observation.

It is easy to make the test timeout by commenting out the line 171.

The proposed solution is to get informed when the monitor did
observation on calling:
    StdObservedObject.getNbObjects();

Thanks,
Shanliang
