But those two platforms set up `nullptr` as `c2i_no_clinit_check_entry()`, because clinit barriers are unimplemented. So the new assert added in [JDK-8364269](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8364269) fails encountering effectively `nullptr - i2c_entry` "garbage".

Had to do it in unsigned ints to avoid UB. For the affected platforms, we do not actually access this problematic/garbage entry offset, since we are always checking if clinit barriers are enabled. So the assert is the only place where it matters.
