netty Reflective Access Unsupported

I have an AWS Firehose Client running in my lambda fucntion. It is instantiated as shown below.

  private static FirehoseAsyncClient firehoseClient =
      FirehoseAsyncClient.builder()
          .region(Region.of(Env.getRegion()))
          .credentialsProvider(EnvironmentVariableCredentialsProvider.create())
          .overrideConfiguration(
              ClientOverrideConfiguration.builder()
                  .apiCallAttemptTimeout(Duration.ofSeconds(3))
                  .retryPolicy(
                      RetryPolicy.builder()
                          .backoffStrategy(BackoffStrategy.defaultStrategy())
                          .retryCondition(RetryCondition.defaultRetryCondition())
                          .numRetries(10)
                          .build())
                  .build())
          .build();

When we do a PutRecord, i'm getting below exception, which is similar to the one specified here. Since it is running as a normal lambda function, i couldnt find a way to specify -Dio.netty.tryReflectionSetAccessible=true/false as specified in the other SO answer.

Any ideas?
