2.12 emits static forwarder for bridge method in mirror class #10812
Description
trait A { def f: Object = null }
object B extends A { override def f: String = "b" }
With 2.12.5, asm gives
// access flags 0x9
public static f()Ljava/lang/String;
GETSTATIC B$.MODULE$ : LB$;
INVOKEVIRTUAL B$.f ()Ljava/lang/String;
// access flags 0x9
public static f()Ljava/lang/Object;
GETSTATIC B$.MODULE$ : LB$;
INVOKEVIRTUAL B$.f ()Ljava/lang/Object;
In 2.11, we don't get the static forwarder for the bridge method. Luckily, javac picks one of the two (the more specific), but IntelliJ seems to complain.
