      Description

        Consider this code:
        ---
        public class PatternTest {
            public static void main(String[] args) {
                Object expr = "a";
                boolean b = expr instanceof (String a && a.equals("a"));
            }
        }
        ---

        This crashes javac:
        $ javac --enable-preview -source 17 PatternTest.java
        Note: PatternTest.java uses preview features of Java SE 17.
        Note: Recompile with -Xlint:preview for details.
        An exception has occurred in the compiler (17-internal). Please file a bug against the Java compiler via the Java bug reporting page (http://bugreport.java.com) after checking the Bug Database (http://bugs.java.com) for duplicates. Include your program, the following diagnostic, and the parameters passed to the Java compiler in your report. Thank you.
