though I prefer to minimize calling Swing stuff from AWT code. What
do others think?
let's wait for the rest of the team
Is there any awt code that calls into swing already? (not including
any peer impls)

Hello Swing and AWT teams,
This is a fix for the problem discussed recently (see the thread
"Lw/Hw mixing vs revalidate()/validate()/invalidate()"). The
webrev:
http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~anthony/7-23-invalidate-6852592.0/
Please review.
A couple of notes:
1. We need to get a CCC approval for the API specification
changes. This will take some time.
2. The Container.invalidate() previously had a block of code that
was executed w/o grabbing the TreeLock (a call to the
LayoutManager2.invalidateLayout())). Now the code is moved to the
invalidateImpl() which is always invoked under the TreeLock. This
doesn't seem to be a problem: actually only the initial call to
the Container.invalidate() ran the code off the lock. All
subsequent recursive calls to this method did in fact happen
under the lock. Therefore I assume that this change is OK.
