Instead of "assert(false, ...", I recommend "fatal(...".
This will cause a failure in all build configs including 'release' bits.

Hello,
Please review the following:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8198585
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~cjplummer/8198585/webrev.00/webrev/
Before removing ServiceUtil::visible_oop(), I want to make sure it
really isn't needed. Supposedly it should never return false, thus
negating the need for its existence. This change adds asserts whenever
false is returned. If it makes it all the way through promotion
testing, then I'll delete the ServiceUtil::visible_oop() code and the
references to it.
I tested by running all jdk and hotspot tier1-3 tests.
thanks,
Chris
