In the void NativeJump::patch_verified_entry() we atomically patch first 4 bytes, then atomically patch 5th byte, then atomically patch first 4 bytes again. But from CMC (cross-modified code) point of view it's better to patch atomically 8 bytes at once.
The patch was tested with hotspot jtreg tests in bare-metal and virtualized environments.
