Similar but incomplete patches went in with [JDK-8130309](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8130309), [JDK-8248411](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8248411) and [JDK-8272094](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8272094) in the past.

Even with the stress option, we expand the code buffer such that multiple instructions will fit and in addition, chances are high that we simply bail out from compilation before emitting the problematic instruction. I attached a patch to [JDK-8298720](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8298720), that makes `-XX:+StressCodeBuffers` randomized and more aggressive. With that, I can reproduce the issue reliably but it's extremely slow and therefore not well suited for integration.

Hi! Thanks for handling RISC-V at the same time. I can help arrange some necessary tests on linux-riscv64 for those changes.
