RFR(S): 8136473: failed: no mismatched stores, except on raw memory: StoreB StoreI

[Vladimir Kozlov]

Hmm, so you just relaxed the assert. You may need to fix EA too because it also checks for matching types(memory sizes).
I remember we had problem with RAW accesses back when jsr292 was implemented. So EA gave up on RAW access and marks 
allocations as escaping. Also may be superword/vectorization will be affected.

In general it is very bad for C2 to have different memory on the same non-RAW memory.

Modify test to make array scalar replaceable and see. Also try vectorization.

Thanks,
Vladimir
