      See JDK-8357017 and JDK-8258229 for examples of problems caused by NativeJump::patch_verified_entry().

      Recent JDK releases always use nmethod entry barriers, and already have support for redirecting to SharedRuntime::get_handle_wrong_method_stub(). We can replace verified entry point patching with a permanently armed entry barrier.
