To be frank, I would like to integrate your changes into my, because I need a 
second PR for JDK to be able to write such issues in JBS on my own. 

To the PR itself: The main difference between both is that with my PR we say 
"this should not happen please check before if you really want this" and with 
your PR we don't. I liked your initial PR that threw an error for the normal 
case that we cannot call this method for a thread in an inconsistent state. As 
you stated in the comment in the method of your PR, it is only a special case 
for AsyncGetCallTrace.

What is the down side of having to explicitly check for this special case when 
you need it and otherwise throw an error?
