The crash happens because nmethod might become a zombie before it is enqueued in JvmtiDeferredEventQueue or after it is dequeued from it. The crash is reproduced by serviceability/jvmti/CompiledMethodLoad/Zombie.java. However, it takes ~3K  runs to hit it. I verified the fix by running this test >100K on each platform. Also, I verified that protecting in 'void JvmtiDeferredEventQueue::post(JvmtiEnv* env)' is not enough.
