That would be a question for @fisk and/or @stefank. AFAIK, the color bits 
should be masked by ZGC barriers *before* the oops enter the synchronization 
subsystem. But I kinda suspect that we are somehow triggering a ZGC bug here. 
Maybe we require barriers when reading oops from the lock-stack too?
