Even if when `createNode` is called by multi-thread.this fix is also not
thread-safe.
Step1:One thread has acquired the `list` lock and enters into L487,add a
element into `list`
Step2:But at the same time just after Step1, another thread enters into
L483,the reference of `list` is pointed to the old `_list` object. It will
cause thread-unsafe
