> The change fixes regression from JDK-8299414.
> There is a deadlock between JvmtiVTMSTransitionDisabler and EscapeBarrier when virtual threads are in mount/unmount transition:
> EscapeBarrier requests deoptimization which requires thread suspension.
> JvmtiVTMSTransitionDisabler ctor waits until all in progress VTMS transitions complete, but they cannot be completed as thread is suspended.
> To avoid the deadlock mount/unmount transitions should be completed before EscapeBarrier stuff.
