Review Comment:
   That is a great observation Tom! Ideally the code should be written to 
ensure that recording a metric should not block because the operation is wall 
clock time sensitive. But as you observed, we have `synchronized` at multiple 
places which may lead to sample being recorded in a window which has already 
completed in the past.
   
   For cases when the `sensor` is used for calculating the ConnectionQuota, 
this problem wouldn't occur because the calculation of `Time.milliseconds` is 
done inside a `synchronised` block which ensures that ensures that only one 
thread with latest timestamp will be accessing the sensor.record at a time.
   
   But I don't know about other code paths other than ConnectionQuota that use 
sensor and your observation is valid. 
   
   Since this problem is independent of this code change, and breaks existing 
logic if/when recordingTimeMs < endTimeOfPreviousWindow, I have created a JIRA 
to address this in a separate PR: 
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/KAFKA-13994

Review Comment:
   I find the new code more readable since we can immediately eye ball that a 
min is being calculated vs. in the previous version where we have to understand 
the assignments and logic in for loop to determine what is going on. 
   
   Nevertheless, I don't have strong opinion on this one. If you still think we 
need to revert it back, I will do it. Let me know.

   I have completely got rid of these changes. They were more from useful for 
defensive programming but changing the public APIs would have required a KIP
