AArch64 generates suboptimal code for profile counters.

This add xscratch2, x0, #0x218 ldr xscratch1, [xscratch2] add xscratch1, xscratch1, #0x1 str xscratch1, [xscratch2] can be this: ldr xscratch1, [x0, #0x218] add xscratch1, xscratch1, #0x1 str xscratch1, [x0, #0x218] Although this looks like a very minor improvement, the same pattern is repeated many times in C1-generated code. http://cr.openjdk.java.net/~aph/8138575/

Looks good to me too.
