We missed once such check when computing how many old GC threads we should use compared to young GC threads, resulting in a division by zero when starting the first "warmup" major collection. This division by zero is detected by UBSan. I added a check for unstable times like we have in many other places, which I have verified removes the problem.

Looks okay.

I think you want to change fix-versions in JIRA, so that no backport is created when you push. Then we need to consider pulling this in JDK 21+.
