> ### Summary > This PR just replaces `ThreadCritical` with a lock specific to NMT. > `ThreadCritical` is a big lock and is unnecessary for the purposes of NMT. > I've implemented the new lock with a semaphore so that it can be used early > before VM init. There is also the possibility of adding assertions in places > we expect NMT to have synchronization. I haven't added assertions yet in many > places because some code paths such as the (NMT tests) don't lock yet. I > think it makes sense to close any gaps in locking in another PR in which I > can also add more assertions. > > Testing: > - hotspot_nmt > - gtest:VirtualSpace > - tier1
