I cannot see a reason for the distinction between interpreted and compiled frames. The shared code reference to `frame::interpreter_frame_last_sp()` is thereby eliminated.

hotspot_loom and jdk_loom tests on x86_64 and aarch64 still pass with the last commit https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/9411/commits/fdb14090e74e8adb9046c10065f03e4e46e09f1c.
Tests with the ppc64 loom port succeeded as well.
