Runtime methods called through the SharedRuntime::generate_resolve_blob() stub always return the value stored in _from_compiled_entry as the entry point to the callee method. This will either be the entry point to the compiled version of callee if there is one or the c2i adapter entry point. But this doesn't consider the case where an EnterInterpOnlyModeClosure handshake catches the JavaThread in the transition back to Java on those methods. In that case we should return the c2i adapter entry point even if there is a compiled entry point. Otherwise the JavaThread will continue calling the compiled versions of methods without noticing it's in interpreted only mode until it either calls a method that hasn't been compiled yet or it returns to the caller of that resolved callee where the change to interpreter only mode happened (since the EnterInterpOnlyModeClosure handshake marked all the frames on the stack for deoptimization).

This guarantees that we will not return an entry point to compiled code that has already been removed. So the fix just adds a check to verify if the JavaThread entered into interpreted only mode in that transition back to Java and to return the c2i entry point instead.

@matias9927 has been working with invoke dynamic data structures recently
and might be able to help shed some light here...
