@rkennke Please include s390x implementation from here: https://github.com/offamitkumar/jdk/commit/e67e332ce6b3b09e723c08b11146ebe0cc16f0fd. 

This also disables this test on s390x & PPC for now, but if that's not what we want then I can revert changes done to `CompressedClassPointersEncodingScheme.java` file.
