This PR removes the runtime check for supported platforms. The check would throw an UnsupportedPlatformException when your runtime platform wasn't supported. Without the check, a NullPointerException will be thrown (because the MethodHandle will be null). So the actual benefit of the check was really small, but it complicated the code generator and incurred a bit of runtime overhead.
