JDK-8250630 - test/jdk/com/sun/jdi/JdwpListenTest.java fails on Alpine Linux
Description
JDK-8250630 introduced the following change:

     if (listenAddr == NULL) {
  +        // No address of preferred addres family found, grab the fist one.
  +        listenAddr = &(addrInfo[0]);
  +    }
  +
  +    if (listenAddr == NULL) {
         dbgsysFreeAddrInfo(addrInfo);
         RETURN_ERROR(JDWPTRANSPORT_ERROR_INTERNAL, "listen failed: wrong address");
     }

After this change it is no longer possible for the RETURN_ERROR block to ever be executed because listenAddr can not ever still be NULL. The entire block should be removed.

Note this also means that JDK-8248911 can no longer possibly happen.
