Hello Wang!

There is no transaction change in this case because all callers of this
function have open handles for the same transaction.

If you enter that DQ_MOD_B check, you are guaranteed to reference
the SAME transaction as the thread that's in between of mark_dirty
and clear_dirty.

Thank you,
Andrew
