A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
We had an Apache Solr instance start crashing with this same issue after upgrading to JDK 21. It appears that explicit monitor deflation leads to the in_use_list_ceiling being erroneously bumped, eventually leading to wrap around a divide by zero:

Thread dumps cause this due to the explicit deflation request here:
