The current implementation of JfrVFrameStream uses WalkContinuation::include, which causes JFR to walk the continuation and perform GC barriers. This is problematic, since ZGC has a requirement that we never perform load barriers while running the relocation code. If we do, we might end up performing other reloctions from the the relocation code, and in some cases that causes dead locks.
