Description

Primitive types can never be null therefore using any nullness annotation on them is invalid. Also to prevent that an array is null the syntax needs to be

<element type> <nullness annotation> [], e.g. byte @NotNull []

Something like e.g. @NotNull byte [] is invalid (compare with https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62066166/string-notnull-syntax-causes-notnull-not-applicable-to-type-use-in-in).
