In some API functions, the internal function H5I_object() was used instead of H5I_object_verify(), which verifies the type of an ID argument. So when an inappropriate ID was passed in to the affected API, it was accepted. This behavior can cause issues at a later time, including a segfault, as reported in issue GH-4656.
The fix was applied to the following functions:
H5Fget_intent()
H5Fget_fileno()
H5Fget_freespace()
H5Fget_create_plist()
H5Fget_access_plist()
H5Fget_vfd_handle()
H5Dvlen_get_buf_size()
H5Fget_mdc_config()
H5Fset_mdc_config()
H5Freset_mdc_hit_rate_stats()
Fixes GH-4662
