You're right, the problem is a different one, but still within this
function. When there are multiple readers concurrently sneaking through
the "if (!node->map_token)" check, the extent will get mapped multiple
times, but only unmapped once.
Scrub is running in multiple threads, with path->skip_locking = 1, and
it triggers this condition immediately.
