[lworld] RFR: 8252854: [lworld] Buffering in C1 entry can trigger safepoint before nmethod entry barrier has been executed

The runtime call to buffer scalarized inline type arguments in the C1 entry points can safepoint before the entry
barrier of the corresponding nmethod has been executed. As a result, oops in the nmethod might be bad and the GC
crashes in 'nmethod_oops_do'. We should simply execute the entry barrier before calling into the runtime.
