Description
3 finalizers in RMI code can be removed, as they do not perform meaningful cleanup:

jdk.naming.rmi/share/classes/com/sun/jndi/rmi/registry/RegistryContext.
jdk.naming.rmi/share/classes/com/sun/jndi/rmi/registry/RegistryContext.BindingEnumeration

Changeset: d222c186 Branch: master Author: Brent Christian <bchristi@openjdk.org> Date: 2025-02-04 22:37:31 +0000 URL: https://git.openjdk.org/jdk/commit/d222c186a6c5a282e9ef143fac3568351ad7b9d7

Moving this to the javax.naming subcategory, as two of the changes are actually in JNDI's use of RMI and not RMI itself.
