From the log, it seems that the issue is due to the fact that the pointer input to the `Load` is a `Proj` but its input dies, so the cast `as_Multi` in `try_optimize_strict_final_load_memory` fails. I can see a similar check in `MemNode::optimize_simple_memory_chain`. As a result, it is reasonable to just return the top here.

I notice there are other tests in this file that run for thousands of iteration each time they are invoked, so I created https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8377066 to track them. For this PR, I disable the test in `TestNullableInlineTypes`.
