I found a couple of crashes while reviewing and testing flushing of
open transaction data:

These failures come randomly.
I'm not able to reproduce this issue with simple test case.
I have attached the test case which I used to test.
I will further try to find a scenario which could reproduce consistently.
Posting it so that it can help someone in identifying the problem
parallelly through code review by experts.
