We're getting a deadlock on automation due to calling JS_ParseJSON() in the profiler with gPSMutex locked.
The most important of these is the one in profiler_get_profile_jsobject(). Currently the JS_ParseJSON() call frequently leads to deadlock, due to profiler_log() being called within it.

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=try&revision=3390f735714dd71499d19846a6288e3355a32773 shows this fixes the problem. I did 10 runs of the Linux64 debug devtools mochitests and they were all green. Without this fix they were failing ~50% of the time.
