One thing I would like to highlight is `putSafe` is also prone to letting stale updates go through from the same worker. So, the staleness checks at read time (added in this PR) can only prevent stale updates from other workers. Note that, this changes the current behaviour when reading the write made by the `put` call as well i.e stale updates from other workers don't reflect anymore. This is reflective in the change I made in `putConnectorStateShouldOverride`. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
