> X86 does not have zero register. Except that it does for Hotspot, when compressed oops are enabled and heap base is zero. C2 routinely uses `r12` as zero register then. It makes the code considerably more compact. We can do the same in `MacroAssembler`. This would target the stores of known zeroes, which are surprisingly frequent in C1, mostly for zeroing out various `JavaThread` slots, e.g. for exception handling.
