In Leyden repo we start hitting next assert after merging JDK-8316991:
# Internal Error (/workspace/open/src/hotspot/share/opto/node.hpp:407), pid=3216007, tid=3216030
# assert(i < _max) failed: oob: i=2, _max=2

JDK-8316991 added new code which assumes that we always have sequence : IfNode->Bool->Cmp:
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/hotspot/share/opto/escape.cpp#L569
which is not true in some cases. In the failed cases there is additional Opaque4 node between If and Bool nodes.
