--- Comment #2 from Raghavendra G <rgowdapp at redhat.com> ---
> As for the RCA for not able to lookup a saved frame for response, I saw in

This RCA is incorrect, since both 1 and 2 happen atomically under lock. When
looking for a saved frame during reply processing we acquire same lock and
hence atomicity is preserved.
