Post-LRB it doesn't make a difference whether or not inputs to
intrinsics have non-null-types or not because no barriers are feeding
directly into intrinsics. We can remove the whole check.

In sh/jdk11, nightlies are failing because of that, in jdk14 this is
only a bunch of useless code.

Bug:

Testing: hotspot_gc_shenandoah

Good?
