It's intrinsifation was disabled to fix incorrectness caused due to missing inductive InlineType Phi node in loops with Unsafe.put* operations. Since Unsafe.put* APIs returns a void hence JVM state is not altered and ciTypeFlow dataflow analysis does not encounter a inductive definition in the loop, due to this C2 parser misses creating an inductive phi node on

Why not setting the oop to allocated buffer and return the `InlineTypeNode` ? We may have optimizations for Unsafe access for `InlineTypeNode` input.
