In btw a context switch t1 completed the caching and done evict and again
cached same block.. This seems rarest of rare case.

Agree. But HBase is a long running service, small probability events always
occur if we keep it running long enough...
Let me revisit the whole read write path in regionserver which relates to
BlockCache and give a clear locking schema first. Then it is easier to say if
the situation in this testcase could happen.
Will come back later. Thanks.

> I think the problem is here. We remove a BucketEntry that should not be
> removed by us, but we do not put it back and also do not do any clean up.
