I don't think this is correct - if the state is TS_ENTER then where do we post 
the event? I think this should be:

     if (JvmtiExport::should_post_monitor_waited()) {
       if (node.TState != ObjectWaiter::TS_ENTER) {
         // Process suspend requests now if any, before posting the event.
         ThreadBlockInVM tbvm(current, true);
       }
       JvmtiExport::post_monitor_waited(current, this, ret == OS_TIMEOUT);
     }
