    Description

      Summary:

      Fix a race in walking the list of updates for a key.

       


      Running in develop, with the tightest proposed fixes for WT-5119, another failure:

      format.sh: /data/bostic/RUNDIR.5442 log:
          > t: process 51527 running
          > snapshot-isolation 0000081892.00/opqrstuvwxyzabcdefghi search mismatch
          > expected {}
          >    found {0000081892/LMN30303030303030303030303030303030303030303030303030303030303030303030srqponmlfedcbazyxzy}
          > 
          > t: run FAILED
          > snapshot-isolation error: Dumping page to /data/bostic/RUNDIR.5442/pagedump
          > snapshot-isolation error: Dumping LAS to /data/bostic/RUNDIR.5442/LASdump 

      This is actually the reverse of the typically WT-5119 failure, which makes me think it's something else entirely. The typical WT-5119 failure is "expected XXX, found nothing", and this is the opposite.
