> Please, review this patch to make nmethod entry barriers use `conc-instruction-and-data-patch` fence mechanics when ShenandoahGC is being used on AArch64. The patch also removes (including from JVMCI interface) the old constant that was being used only by Shenandoah on AArch64.
> 
> The patch has been tested with functional and performance benchmarks on AArch64. Improvements in DaCapo and Renaissance benchmarks can be as high as 30%. Maximum critical Jops in SPEC improved by ~10%.
