Option b is harder to do because we currently cannot link old classes during dump time. So we can't simply do the following check to see is a jsr bytecode is present during dump time.
`m->has_jsrs()`

In order to do the above check during dump time, for an "old" class, we'll need to check all the methods and for each method check all the byte codes and see if a jsr bytecode is present.

I'll try to implement the above.
