FYI, I've tested this bug, with the original reproducer I hit this bug. Although
the reproducer is a big long time (3days) stress test, and can't reproduce
this bug 100%, but generally with about 1/5 chance.

So I submitted 6 testing jobs, all test passed today, didn't this bug, so I
think this patch works for me. (This testing can't replace regression test)

Anway, for more convince, I just submitted more 6 testing jobs again. They'll
be done on next Monday (11-14). I'll feedback if there're any problems, or
nothing wrong.

Thanks,
Zorro
