> The DataNode can sometimes allocate a ShortCircuitShm slot and fail to tell
> the DFSClient about it because of a network error. In
> {{DataXceiver#requestShortCircuitFds}}, the DataNode can succeed at the first
> part (mark the slot as used) and fail at the second part (tell the DFSClient
> what it did). The "try" block for unregistering the slot only covers a
> failure in the first part, not the second part. In this way, a divergence can
> form between the views of which slots are allocated on DFSClient and on
> server.
