For earlier incarnations of Shenandoah, we needed to put barriers before accessing primitive fields. This is no longer necessary nor implemented/used by any GC, and we should simplify the code to do plain access instead.
(We may want to remove remaining primitive access machinery in the Access API soon)
Testing:
- [ ] tier1
- [ ] tier2
- [ ] hotspot_gc
