https://github.com/apache/trafficserver/blob/71e4abada913ff35ad60d4d9c98e462b11b86c23/iocore/cache/P_CacheInternal.h#L759
   It seems that `CacheVC::writer_done()`  used to check whether 
`CacheVC::write_vc` is still in the OpenDir. I've read the code of this 
function, and I found the `for` loop below.
   ```c++
   for (; w && (w != write_vc || w->start_time > start_time); w = (CacheVC 
*)w->opendir_link.next) {
       ;
     }
   ```
   With the conditional statment `w->start_time > start_time`, I assume 
`write_vc` doesn't exist in the OpenDir anymore, we may still get a writer 
earlier than the current reader. So `writer_done()` will return `false`, but 
the previous writer `write_vc` has already left.
   The question is what does the condition `w->start_time > start_time` meant 
for.
