Initial attempts showed that removing this is not straightforward, causing crashes and so I left it out for [JDK-8250941](https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8260941) so that this change is solely about removing unused code.

(latest tier1-4 testing still stuck on linux-aarch64, but everything else passed. I think there is no particular aarch64 specific change in there...)
