        As JDK-8261914 indicates, there are cases that break the internal asserts in IfNode::fold_compares_helper, code added by JDK-8073480 in JDK 9. Unfortunately, release builds would happily miscompile when that happens. It would be better to code IfNode::fold_compares_helper more defensively, so it bails when asserts are violated. This implicitly works around the bug in JDK-8261914. The goal for this limited workaround is to be trivially backportable in order to quickly unbreak 11u, 16u and 17.
