i am changing description a bit as it can be confusing

Description
linker elimination(_linkTo*) in C2 was not handled properly for trap and 
take slow path in _linkTo* callsite.

and in reported bug, this makes wrong data getting loaded in to profile 
information. and later getting crash at recompilation.


Fix: avoid traps at linkTo* callsite.

Best Regards,
Jamsheed
