Description
While testing a new flag I want to introduce (TraceOSR) I noticed that unresolved invokedynamic call sites compiled in C1 deoptimize and OSR infinitely.  The reason for that is we deoptimize but we don't have machinery in C1 to tell to throw the method out and recompile it.  So we just enter the same method again and hit the same unresolved call site.

Comments
Verified by comparing the performance of the benchmark suggested in the original bug comments in 7u40b31 and 7u4b15. Test: "jruby -J-showversion -J-d64 -J-XX:TieredStopAtLevel=1 -X+C bench_red_black.rb". Host: localhost, Windows 7, amd64.

EVALUATION Now the code sequence for an unresolved invokedynamic call site looks like this: 0xfffffd7ff6106d9a: mov %rsp,%rbp 0xfffffd7ff6106d9d: mov $0xfffffd7fd269bd28,%rsi ; {oop(cache [915] for constant pool [1576]/invokedynamic/operands[1798] for 'bench/bench_richards' cache=0xfffffd7fd269bd28)} 0xfffffd7ff6106da7: mov 0x6028(%rsi),%rsi 0xfffffd7ff6106dae: cmp $0x0,%rsi ;; 838 branch [EQ] [DeoptimizeStub: 0x479ca18] [bci:79] 0xfffffd7ff6106db2: je 0xfffffd7ff61095e6 0xfffffd7ff6106db8: mov 0x20(%rsi),%rsi ;*invokedynamic ; - bench.bench_richards::method__6$RUBY$release@79 (line 103) 0xfffffd7ff6106dbc: nop 0xfffffd7ff6106dbd: nop 0xfffffd7ff6106dbe: nop 0xfffffd7ff6106dbf: callq 0xfffffd7ff58cdd60 ; OopMap{off=3172} ;*invokedynamic ; - bench.bench_richards::method__6$RUBY$release@79 (line 103) ; {optimized virtual_call} 0xfffffd7ff6106dc4: mov %rbp,%rsp ;*invokedynamic ; - bench.bench_richards::method__6$RUBY$release@79 (line 103)

SUGGESTED FIX Conditionally jump to the deopt stub in generated code if the CallSite object is null. Handling it this way it is not required to recompile the code.

EVALUATION JRuby's red-black benchmark is one that suffers heavily from this bug.
