> The buffer listeners are not notified when the the local buffer pool receives
> available notification from the global pool. This may cause potential
> deadlock issue:
> # A LocalBufferPool is created, but there is no available buffers in the
> global NetworkBufferPool.
> # The LocalBufferPool registers an available buffer listener to the global
> NetworkBufferPool.
> # The BufferManager requests buffers from the LocalBufferPool but no buffer
> is available. As a result, it registers an available buffer listener to the
> LocalBufferPool.
> # A buffer is recycled to the global pool and the local buffer pool is
> notified about the available buffer.
> # The local buffer pool requests the available buffer from the global pool
> but the registered available buffer listener of BufferManager is not notified
> and it can never get a chance to be notified so deadlock occurs.
