Description
The "writeable" macro was introduced in the closed RFE JDK-8073500
"Prevent certain commercial flags from being changed at runtime"

http://hg.openjdk.java.net/jdk/jdk/file/2634194d7555/hotspot/src/share/vm/runtime/globals.hpp#l630

Commercial flags have been removed from the JDK (see JDK-8205505). No flags in the JDK today use this macro. It should be removed.
