I also think CMS can deadlock (stall all merges) if you ever try to
decrease the maxMergeCount when too many merges were already running,
because the stall logic would get to a point where no thread would
ever be allowed to unstall. So I changed it (and MergeScheduler) to
require the maxMergeCount up front.

I proposed this on LUCENE-5080 a while back, but it didnt take then.

> I have been working on a high level merge multiplexer that shares threads
> across different IW instances and I came across the fact that
> SerialMergeScheduler actually blocks incoming thread is a merge in going on.
> Yet this blocks threads unnecessarily since we pull the merges in a loop
> anyway. We should use a tryLock operation instead of syncing the entire
> method?
