Thanks, Martin.

Good point. Even though ciInstanceKlass caches initialization state of 
the corresponding InstanceKlass, it seems there's a possibility that the 
state is updated during the compilation (see 
ciInstanceKlass::update_if_shared). I enhanced the asserts to check that 
initialization has been stated.

Agree. Updated.

Best regards,
