JVM is deadlocked in safepoint pause due to cyclance

Issue

• We run java applications in a system with cylance. We see the JVM reach a persistent hang and even a typical thread dump cannot be captured from it. Native traces show the VMThread continually waiting in SafepointSynchronize::begin():

#0  0x00007f71f973e945 in pthread_cond_wait@@GLIBC_2.3.2 () from /lib64/libpthread.so.0

• And another thread is persistently stuck in malloc lock calls from cylance memory defense:
