      Running the benchmark from JDK-8325269, we found that when we use -XX:-UseStoreStoreForCtor, -XX:-AlwaysMergeDMB significantly improved the the throughput. This experiment shows that "dmb ishst + dmb ishld" is faster than "dmb ish" on Ampere CPU. Thus, we prefer to turn off AlwaysMergeDMB for Ampere CPU by default.
