SubCR)
6852078: HSX 14/16 in jdk 5.0: api/javax_management api/org_omg jck
tests crashes or make tnameserv crash
Problem: Current implementation of superword optimization does not check
for unsafe memory accesses. Since
unsafe memory accesses could not be aligned appropriately without
runtime checking, a un-aligned superword
read/write could cause runtime failure.
Solution: Simply disable superword for unsafe memory access whose base
is top.
Tests: Test case in 6852078
Thanks,
Changpeng
