We currently handshake GC threads with monitor deflation by calling SuspendibleThreadSet::synchronize() and SuspendibleThreadSet::desynchronize(). This is somewhat problematic though, because GCs may use other mechanisms to sync their GC threads. In particular, ZGC uses ZRelocateQueue to do that.
Luckily, CollectedHeap comes with interfaces for exactly this purpose: CollectedHeap::safepoint_synchronize_begin() and CollectedHeap::safepoint_synchronize_end(). Those methods are implemented by ZGC to do the correct synchronization with ZRelocateQueue. All GCs which need that sort of synchronization are overriding these methods and delegate to STS methods, so we can replace the STS calls with the CollectedHeap calls.
