From: Kairui Song Allocating an extend table requires dropping the ci lock first. While the lock is dropped, a concurrent put can decrease the slot's swap count to a value that is no longer maxed out, so the extend table is no longer required. The current allocation path still attach the new extend table to the cluster anyway, leaving it unused. It's not really leaked, the next maxed out count on the same cluster reuses the table, and frees it properly. Swapoff will also clean it up. The worst case is one unused page pinned per cluster until the next maxed-out allocation or swapoff. To eliminate the waste, re-check under the ci lock that the extend table is still needed before publishing it, and free the local allocation otherwise. The added overhead is ignorable.
