/approval request This PR updates JVMCI interface to receive/send to the external compiler the reason why a nmethod is being invalidated. Most of the touched files in the PR are just hit by collateral effect due to constants' name renaming, though. Note that a second commit/issue was added to this PR to address a bug on the original patch. These original changes have been integrated in JDK mainline about 4 months ago. Besides GHA the current patch was also tested on my internal CI.

The backport looks fine.

I do notice JDK-8360168 is still open, and there is JDK-8360169 problemlist addition. @RealFYang, are you OK with this going into 25u, or are you fixing the issue in mainline, or do you want to pick up problemlist patch as well?

Hi, Thanks for the ping. I think we need the problemlist patch for now.
Should we have it in this backport PR as well? Or shall I propose another one after this PR?
