// Basic logic of a fast version of jni_Get<Primitive>Field:
//
// (See safepoint.hpp for a description of _safepoint_counter)
//
// load _safepoint_counter into old_counter
// IF old_counter is odd THEN
//   a safepoint is going on, return jni_GetXXXField
// ELSE
//   load the primitive field value into result (speculatively)
//   load _safepoint_counter into new_counter
//   IF (old_counter == new_counter) THEN
//     no safepoint happened during the field access, return result
//   ELSE
//     a safepoint might have happened in-between, return jni_GetXXXField()
//   ENDIF
// ENDIF
//
// LoadLoad membars to maintain the load order may be necessary
// for some platforms.
//
// The fast versions don't check for pending suspension request.
// This is fine since it's totally read-only and doesn't create new race.
//
// There is a hypothetical safepoint counter wraparound. But it's not
// a practical concern.
