> The point of the `phantom_ref` parameter (introduced by [JDK-8234359](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8234359)) of `JVMCINMethodData::get_nmethod_mirror` is to avoid the special resurrection semantics of a phantom read when reading the field during GC, which is when `JVMCINMethodData::invalidate_nmethod_mirror` can be called.
> This case can be handled directly in `JVMCINMethodData::invalidate_nmethod_mirror` and so the `phantom_ref` parameter can be removed.
