I think it's false positive, since the statement 'assert(buf != nullptr, "invalid argument");' has make sure the buf should not be nullptr before execute '::read(int, void*, int)'. The call chain is `void VM_Version::initialize_cpu_information(void)` -> `void VM_Version::get_compatible_board(char *buf, int buflen)` -> `static bool read_fully(const char *fname, char *buf, size_t buflen)`, `*buf` is defined as `char Abstract_VM_Version::_cpu_desc[4096] = {0};` and then right shift 8 bytes, so `*buf` should not be nullptr.

GHA report test `gc/shenandoah/mxbeans/TestPauseNotifications.java#generational` fails on windows-x64, which I create a new jbs issue [JDK-8345895](https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8345895) to record it. This PR touch file vm_version_linux_aarch64.cpp will not effect x64 in theory, I think the test failure on windows-x64 unralated to this PR.
