Originally, I felt that the race wasn't helped by holding the mutex, hence a comment in the code and not holding it across the cache access. However, it does improve consistency, as while it doesn't prevent bucket exchange, it does prevent bucket pointer invalidation. So a race in gathering cache free space statistics still can occur, but not one that follows an invalid bucket pointer, if the mutex is held.
