I think what I meant was if there are 2 threads which try to create a Kudu 
table with the same name, one of them might succeed while other will fail at 
https://github.com/apache/impala/blob/master/fe/src/main/java/org/apache/impala/service/KuduCatalogOpExecutor.java#L101

This error will be thrown as ImpalaRuntimeException which is will fail the 
query. If the query specifies create if not exists, ideally it should be 
idempotent. It may not be the exact problem that this patch is fixing but it is 
close enough to the race condition described and it would be good to handle 
this case as well.
