JDK 8
8u371Resolved
Description
After updating to JDK 8u361, applications failed to start, with multiple Exceptions being thrown, ultimately identified by a `java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException` occurring at `jdk.internal.platform.cgroupv2.CgroupV2Subsystem.initSubsystem`.

The JVM sometimes failed to initialize on Linux systems where `/proc/self/mountinfo` does not contain any mounted filesystem or controllers for cgroup.
