Description
In certain situations signature types like java/lang/Object may appear to be unloaded which leads to deoptimizations and recompilations.
Comments
Setting component and subcomponent; please adjust as appropriate.

There are two ways to fix it. The first one is two return java/lang/Object as field type if the computed type is unloaded. The second fix is to turn on LinkWellKnowClasses by default. LinkWellKnownClasses only works if the field type is java/lang/Object, for user types we need to other fix.

The problem is in the intrinsification code for Unsafe.getObject. Usually field accesses with get/putfield resolve the field when parsing the bytecode. ciBytecodeStream::get_field calls ciField::will_link which puts class loader constraints for the signature types in place. In LibraryCallKit::inline_unsafe_access we create a ciField object for the field we are accessing but with the ciField's type left uninitialized. When calling ciField::type we try to look up the field type lazily which fails because we never resolved the field and put class loader constraints in place.

In this particular case the type of a pointer field was not initialized and we have to call ciField::compute_type to get the type. The class loader of the field holder is a non-boot class loader and this loader doesn't know about java/lang/Object.
