I think better replaces text with something non-TMP.

Also, might be worth add comment for ThreadSelfSuspensionHandshakeClosure somewhere.  This comment should explain the connection of this
ThreadSelfSuspension handshake and  SuspendThreadHandshake.
Ie there shouldn't safepoint between  `SuspendResumeManager::suspend_with_handshake` and processing ThreadSelfSuspensionHandshake. It should help to understand why suspended thread thread can't be in disabler now.
