[11u] Backport of fix for CDS and JVM-TI agent crash ?

Hi Michael,

I looked into backports for JDK-8212200 and JDK-8213250 but I'm not able to do them. The code level between current JDK11u hotspot and the jdk/jdk repository at the time the patches were pushed (JDK12) has diverged too much. So, it's not a simple resolve and test thing. People with more experience in that area will have to do it. I don't have the required expertise and also no time to dig deeper into it.

So, maybe somebody is willing to step up here - otherwise I'm afraid these bugs need to remain unfixed in OpenJDK 11 for the time being.

Best regards
Christoph
