We need to be really careful about this, because we had the issues with inconsistent barrier schemes in C1 and C2:
https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8179954
Modern jcstress is able to run tests with one side compiled by C1 and another one compiled by C2, exactly to catch these things. So I suggest you get at least one clean jcstress run with this patch, at least on AArch64 (with both `-UseLSE` and `+UseLSE`).
