JVMCI still exports XBarrierSetRuntime as fields in CompilerToVM::Data under the original name of ZBarrierSetRuntime.  I have exported the XBarrierSetRuntime and ZBarrierSetRuntime functions as addresses under their actual name.  This permits backward compatibility until all the required parts are in place.  We can eventually delete the CompilerToVM::Data names.
