[INACTIVE] Avian is a lightweight virtual machine and class library designed to provide a useful subset of Java's features, suitable for building self-contained applications.
On ARM64, conditional branches to immediate offsets can span no more
than 2^19 instructions. In the case of the stack overflow check,
which wants to do a conditional branch from every non-leaf method to a
handler, this can be a problem, especially when compiled code grows
large as with a bootimage=true build against the OpenJDK class
library. Therefore, we use an unconditional branch to reach the
handler on this platform.
