When running with -XX:-OptimizePtrCompare (which disables pointer comparison optimization), the compiler may hit an assertion failure in debug builds because optimize_ptr_compare is still being called. This violates the intended usage of the flag and leads to unexpected crashes.

This patch adds an early return to reduce_phi_on_cmp when OptimizePtrCompare is false. Since the optimization relies on optimize_ptr_compare for static reasoning about comparisons, there's no benefit in proceeding with reduce_phi_on_cmp when this flag is disabled.

…phi_on_cmp

When running with `-XX:-OptimizePtrCompare` (which disables pointer comparison optimization), the compiler may hit an assertion failure in debug builds because `optimize_ptr_compare` is still being called. This violates the intended usage of the flag and leads to unexpected crashes.

This patch adds an early return to `reduce_phi_on_cmp` when `OptimizePtrCompare` is false. Since the optimization relies on `optimize_ptr_compare` for static reasoning about comparisons, there's no benefit in proceeding with `reduce_phi_on_cmp` when this support is disabled.
