The DFG JIT bytecode parser converts equal-null compare/branch opcodes into a tree of JSConstant(null), an equality comparison, and a branch. The backend never special-cases the equal-to-null case, and treats it as a normal equality comparison; this means that equal-null always takes slow path. The DFG JIT backend should have a peephole optimization for this case.
