~~RVM-205~~ Use of obsolete methods in OSR events

Description

« Hide

Commit 11568 made VM_FieldReference.resolve and VM_MethodReference.resolve
into synchronized methods. I completely agree with the rationale of getting
stability. I'm just opening this feature to remind us that we need to
revisit this at a later point and try to get the synchronization back out
of the common case.

This issue just seems to be hiding a symptom of underlying problem. Ideally I would like to see this removed earlier rather than later as I suspect it is related to some of the other issues we are experiencing.

The functionality we have is correct, moving this issue to a later release.
