      Donor shards currently do two writes to generate, pin, and replicate the minFetchTimestamp value. First, donor shards write a no-op oplog entry and use its opTime as the minFetchTimestamp. Second, donor shards update the config.localReshardingOperations.donor document to set the minFetchTimestamp field. This two-step process can lead to cases where the generated opTime has already lagged behind the current oldest_timestamp value and has therefore become ineligible for pinning.

      repl::getNextOpTime() can be called within the WriteUnitOfWork to reserve an oplog slot. This oplog slot that can be used as the timestamp for the update to set the minFetchTimestamp field.
