Review comment:
       @guozhangwang can you elaborate on why we don't just throw 
`CommitFailedException` here? It seems like it must be the case that the caller 
is a zombie and should get that exception to alert it, not the 
`RebalanceInProgressException` which seems to indicate it might be recoverable
