The original code does not have this `assert()`, but I'm okay with this.

I finished doing an equivalence analysis of this code that has been replaced
with
the code in `ObjectSynchronizer::get_lock_owner()`. This `assert()` on L1422 is
the only thing I found that is "missing".
However, I don't think that you can add back that `assert()` call in this
function.
The reason that the `assert()` is okay in the original code is because it is
"protected" by this line:
L1419 if (owner != NULL) {
and while that check is also done in `ObjectSynchronizer::get_lock_owner()` on
L1032, it DOES NOT `assert()` that the return from
`Threads::owning_thread_from_monitor_owner()` is not NULL and in fact
has a comment that says:
// owning_thread_from_monitor_owner() may also return NULL here
If memory serves, `ObjectSynchronizer::get_lock_owner()` can be called from
locations where we have non-NULL `owner`, but when we try to find the owning
thread, we can sometimes get a NULL back.

You could also do:
return owner() != nullptr;
and take advantage of the fact that `owner()` filters out DEFLATER_MARKER for
you.
